About Upward Scholars

Location:

855 Jefferson Ave, Box 506, Redwood City, CA 94064, US

Mission Statement

Upward Scholars provides adult immigrants the boost they need to move up the economic ladder through education and vocational support.

Description

Upward Scholars supports students with the following:

  • Textbooks, which can cost several hundred dollars a semester.
  • Bus passes, which cost $320 a semester, for all students who need to take the bus to college.
  • Tutors, by community volunteers who meet with students at a time and location that is convenient to the student and tutor.
  • Laptops for students who need them.
  • College advising to help students choose classes, resolve financial aid issues, and navigate the college bureaucracy. Silicon Valley Community Foundation makes this possible.

We also have a Conversation Club where students chat informally with community volunteers.
