First Generation College Bound has helped me monumentally, they have assisted me through much of the hardships I was having. They provided invaluable information about college that really educates the people involved. Many parents have not gone to college and many students are lost about the college process themselves which is part of the reason why some just do not attend and the ignorance about the college process just continues. I come from a single-parent household and my mom did not go to college. Although my father did, he is no longer around, which left us in a predicament. First Generation College Bound alleviated the stress that I felt. Their seminars have proven immensely helpful and they have greatly assisted me during my endeavors and because of them I am now in college and working hard to be the best that I can be so I can ultimately make those that believe in me proud, especially my mom. I could never forget the family that I have come to know and appreciate greatly, First Generation College Bound.
GMGF Field Trip to Towson University
Great Minds Great Futures (GMGF) attended another college tour, this time to Towson University for their Open House!

Students were able to speak with different department personnel. Some of those fields our students were interested in, included: Computer Science, Technology, Health, Education, Music, Theater, and many more. Students were able to experience the Dining Hall on campus for lunch.

They were also able to choose to go to different sessions such as the College of Business & Economics, College of Education, College of Health Professions, and the Honors College. It was an incredible opportunity for our GMGF Students.

Thank you to all who attended!

FGCB helped me and my family understand the college acceptance procedures; a complicated and misunderstood process while everyone around me persuaded me to be "realistic" and apply to other schools. However, through diligence, tenacity and perseverance, FGCB assisted us with attending the school of our choice and for this, we are eternally grateful.
