America Needs You
The national nonprofit connecting ambitious, first-generation college students with transformative mentorship and intensive career development.
Over 50% of all college students in the United States are first-generation — the first in their families to navigate college and forge a career path beyond graduation.
America Needs You connects first-generation college students with mentors who help them understand workplaces, grow their networks, build resilience, and launch vibrant careers.
America Needs You volunteers help first-generation college students build relationships, skills, and professional networks that open doors to great careers and economic mobility.
By sharing their experience, guidance, and networks, volunteers help Fellows navigate college, the workplace, and the path to a meaningful career.
"In every room I’ve stepped into, I’ve reminded myself - I belong here."
