ABOUT US

E4FC helps immigrant students realize the American dream of college and citizenship. We support immigrant students who have grown up in the United States but face challenges due to financial need and immigration status. Since 2006, we have offered financial support, advisory services, leadership development, original educational materials, an active student network, and extensive outreach activities to immigrant students throughout the San Francisco Bay Area.


BREAKING NEWS

On August 15, 2010, E4FC hosts "A Day to Celebrate Immigrants" at Angel Island. This is a rare opportunity to visit the newly reopened Immigration Station (now commemorating its 100th anniversary), listen to first-hand accounts from immigrants formerly detained on the island, hear about contemporary immigration issues from renowned immigration expert Bill Ong Hing, and find out about E4FC's work with talented immigrant students. Find out more about the event and buy tickets here.

On July 21, 2010, E4FC students were featured in SF Weekly's cover story, "The Education Trap." Read profiles of E4FC Scholar "Jaime Torres," E4FC Graduate Advisor Beleza Chan, and E4FC Graduate Advisor Prerna Lal.
