BRIDGE: PILIPINX OUTREACH & RETENTION
BRIDGE was created in 1987 because of the steadily decreasing number of Pilipinxs pursuing higher education on a yearly basis. Our goal is to empower students to transform this educational system and validate the complexity of the Pilipinx culture through our services, which include: - High School Outreach: provide resources and mentorship to encourage students to pursue higher education - Academic & Personal Support: offer resources to students to support them achieve the goal of graduation and to increase the recruitment and retention rate of Pilipinx students at all levels of education - Cultural & Community Awareness: promote awareness of various issues in the Pilipinx community, including LGBTQIA+ support and women empowerment |
