Next Generation Scholars invites you to Rising Up Together, our annual spring gala celebrating the students, families, and community that make our work possible. This year's theme reflects this simple truth: that Marin thrives when all members of our community have the opportunity to rise. Join NGS supporters, community leaders, and partners as we celebrate our students' resilience and invest in the support that help our entire Marin community flourish together.
NGS serves first-generation students and their families in Marin County, beginning as early as first grade and continuing through college and into first careers. Through academic support, summer programs that help students maintain educational momentum, leadership development that builds confidence and agency, and essential family services — because students can’t focus on learning when there is food scarcity or instability at home — we walk alongside students and families for the long haul. Because lasting change takes time, care, and community.
