CAP Bay Area - College for Everyone

Making Waves’ College and Alumni Program (CAP) partners with students to achieve their goal of obtaining a college degree. With a long track record of impressive success since inception (see our results here: http://making-waves.org/foundation/results/data), CAP has expanded to include students from nine Bay Area Counties, now supporting more than 400 students in colleges across the nation, and we need help bringing on the next cohort of 100 students. CAP provides up to $5,000 of support annually per student. Our fundraising goal of $20,000 will support 5-7 students this fall with their college tuition and expenses.

Some of the many benefits CAP students receive include:

· 1:1 College coaching
· A Personal Financial Services Coordinator
· Academic and social support
· Tuition scholarships
· Professional and peer networking opportunities

Testimonials from CAP Alumni:

“Thanks to Making Waves, I graduated college in five years, way less time than my friends who are not in Making Waves, and I also graduated debt free.”
- Ivonne Tejeda G. 

"Without the help of CAP, I don’t think I would have been able to excel in college the way I am. I have been able to push myself further into discomfort and grow both emotionally and academically. "
- Lupita G.

Please join us in supporting CAP Bay Area students to graduate from college with as little debt as possible!
