First Generation College Bound
First Generation College Bound (FGCB) is a grassroots, private non-profit celebrating over 35 years of college success. Based in Prince George County, Maryland, the organization has remained committed to investing in the development, growth, and wellness of children in relation to higher education. FGCB 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 FGCB College Access Program currently provides services to over 500 low-to- moderate income students with the goal for them to attend and graduate college with little to no debt. We currently have 3,435 students who have gone to college, 2,119 students currently pursuing college degrees, 1,139 students earned Higher Education Achievements and 42 students who pursued Military service.
