We at POE-South Bay are proud to be supporting students determined to go to college and launch a career. Drawing from the greater San Jose area, our mostly first gen students are challenged by the rising cost of college. POE-South Bay aims to bridge the gap between what financial aid is available, what funding that can come from working and their families, and the cost of a 4+ year college education. In addition to bridging the financial gap, we match students with a mentor who has been the college route, had/has a career, and gained experiences to share. Our goal is to help the students maneuver through the obstacles in college, meet their goals, and be productive citizens.
Below are some of our recent graduates - all now with promising careers.
