OUR MISSION
The mission of THE PENINSULA COLLEGE FUND is to partner with and aid motivated, gifted and traditionally under-represented minority students from the Mid-peninsula and particularly East Palo Alto, East Menlo Park and Redwood City, in their quest for a college education. Our program targets talented, needy students who are often overlooked by other college scholarship programs.
The Fund believes that these students (with approximate GPA’s of 3.3 to 3.8) should not be limited in their education by personal financial circumstances. We provide them with scholarships, mentoring and summer internships that will help them achieve their short and long-term educational and career goals.
GOALS
The primary goal of the program is to assist students in achieving their academic and vocational objectives. Our hope is that our support will then create a future community of givers who want to help others achieve similar goals.
