IMPACTING GENERATIONS FOR SUCCESS
For 30 years, FGCB has helped young people realize a dream that often seemed out of reach: To be the first
in their families to receive a college education.
FGCB is a community-based organization which offers youth and their families a “pipeline” of educational interventions comprising academic readiness, supportive services and guidance to achieve high school graduation, college admissions and earn a post-secondary degree.
The organization functions to address the need for “outside of school” and “college access supports” to increase the number of low-income students who graduate from high school prepared for college, enrolled in quality institutions and matriculate in four years.
Interview with FGCB CEO, Joseph Fisher
FGCB provides pathways thru high school and into college for low to moderate income, at risk, underrepresented youth that attend Prince George’s County Public Schools. FBCB operates four core and interrelated programs that are demonstrated best practices for increasing high school graduation rate of at-risk students ensuring their success to higher education.
