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.
