Homework Club
Students connect with community role models, build leadership skills, receive extra education, explore their culture, and access post-secondary and case management support.
First Generation College Bound’s Homework Club has been serving students since 1992. The program supports 50+ students living in Kimberly Gardens, a low-income residential community in Prince George’s County, Maryland.
Staffed by certified teachers, Homework Club provides structured homework assistance and academic enrichment in a supportive, encouraging environment.
Two Program Tracks
- Homework Club I: Grades 1–6

Each track is designed to meet students at their developmental stage while building strong academic foundations.
