The AVID Class of 2026 is gearing up for an unforgettable, life-changing experience, and we need your help to make it happen! In February of 2025, our students will embark on a road trip across California to visit fourteen colleges and universities, from community colleges to prestigious UC and CSU campuses. This trip will give these hardworking students the opportunity to explore a variety of higher education pathways, inspiring them to envision a future beyond high school and make informed decisions about their college journey.

For many of these students, this road trip is more than just a tour—it's a critical first step toward breaking down barriers and achieving their dreams of attending college. They’ll learn about admissions processes, campus culture, financial aid, and student life, while experiencing the environments that will shape their academic futures. By visiting such a diverse array of schools, our AVID students can see that no matter their background or circumstances, higher education is within their reach.

We are asking for your support to help cover the costs of transportation, lodging, and meals for this weeklong trip. Every donation, no matter how big or small, will go directly toward making this experience possible for our AVID scholars. Your generosity will not only fund a road trip, but also empower these young leaders to pursue their educational goals with confidence.

Thank you for supporting the AVID Class of 2026! Together, we can help these students take the first steps toward a brighter future.
