This core mission of Educators for Fair Consideration (E4FC) has fueled its initiatives since its inception. Through comprehensive community education, scholarship programs, and legal services, E4FC stands as a beacon of hope for undocumented students striving for a better future.
A steadfast belief in inclusion and change underpins E4FC’s work. By empowering individuals through education and legal support, E4FC envisions a world where all young people have the opportunities to realize their fullest potential, regardless of their immigration status.
At the heart of E4FC are the committed individuals who believe in creating pathways to success for underserved populations. Co-Founders Katharine Gin and Carrie Evans exemplify this commitment through their extensive experience in education and community development.
The Scholars Program is a testament to the life-changing impact of E4FC. From the 2008 cohort to the latest 2016 scholars, these ambitious students are not only recipients of financial support but also of a community that nurtures their academic and professional journeys.
Donor contributions are the pillars that support the scholars. The Invest in the Dream initiative encourages the community to partake in a shared vision by investing in these bright minds, ensuring that financial constraints do not hinder educational aspirations.
Understanding the complexities of immigration law is crucial for undocumented students. E4FC's legal services offer a lifeline to these individuals, providing the necessary guidance to navigate the legal landscape and safeguard their rights.
Access to knowledgeable legal assistance can be a determining factor in an undocumented student's life. E4FC facilitates this access, empowering students to understand and utilize resources like the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) policy to their advantage.
Change at an institutional level is imperative for lasting impact. E4FC's policy work seeks to influence legislation and decision-makers, ensuring that the needs and rights of undocumented students are recognized and addressed.
E4FC's educational resources aim to inform and inspire not just students but also their allies. Through workshops, presentations, and a wealth of online resources, E4FC builds a well-informed and engaged community.
With a strong commitment to education, E4FC extends its outreach by offering presentations that raise awareness and foster understanding about the challenges undocumented students face.
The journey to fair consideration is ongoing and active. E4FC's events offer a platform for connection, celebration of achievements, and collaborative engagement in the push for equitable opportunities.
Donations are the backbone of nonprofit organizations like E4FC. By making a donation, individuals have the chance to directly impact the lives of undocumented students and contribute to a future where education and equality flourish.
Educators for Fair Consideration started with the vision to create an environment where all students have the right to education and citizenship. It continues to stand by this creed, advocating for undocumented students and fostering a community united by a common mission of fairness and opportunity.
