Sponsor a Sash for First-Gen Grads

Help us celebrate and provide first-gen Harvard College graduates in the Class of 2025 with a first-gen sash.

First-generation students at Harvard College need our support. In a last-minute decision, the University has cancelled all affinity group celebrations and announced that it will no longer provide sashes to students, first-generation college students.

FGHA is proud to launch a fundraising drive to provide first-gen Harvard College graduates in the Class of 2025. Our goal is to raise $10,000 by May 9 to cover up to 320 stoles—one for every eligible graduating senior. Every $30 you give covers a stole for one graduating first-gen student.

With your help, we can show these students—and their families—that their achievements are seen, valued, and celebrated.
