Hope CommUnity Center believes that access to careers and postsecondary education are important parts of individual and community empowerment!

Here at Hope we offer students the following assistance:

• Personal and education growth
• Seeking information about colleges and universities
• College exposure through college fairs and tours
• Exploring carer interests and finding the best professional setting that matches a person’s passions and skills
• Understanding rights for DACA and undocumented students
• College preparation and applications
• Scholarship research and applications
• Applying for the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA)
• Writing and editing a professional resume

Hope CommUnity Center also offers scholarship funds annually, primarily for students and other individuals involved as a participant or volunteer in center programming. These funds can be applied to costs associated with studying at any technical school, or 2- or 4-year college or university.

Last year, Hope gave out $50,000 to 37 students in their journey towards post-secondary success! Hope would like to thank it’s passionate and dedicated donors who make this possible every year.
