Help First-Generation Students Like Denise Achieve Their Dreams
“Every experience in my academic journey starts with a single fact:
I am the first in my family to continue my education.”
— Denise, Juan Nevarez Memorial Scholar, Yale University
First-generation students like Denise face unique challenges — from figuring out college on their own, to tight budgets, to the emotional weight of leaving home.
The Juan Nevarez Memorial Scholarship changes that story by offering both financial support and mentorship, boosting graduation rates and building a strong future workforce.
We’re kicking off our fundraising for the new school year, and we need your help.
Your generosity makes academic dreams possible for the children of vineyard and winery workers.
Will you support students like Denise today?
