A Decade of Brilliance
Sunday, November 7, 2021, 4pm Pacific, 7pm
A Virtual Celebration honoring:
The Scholars
The Alumni
The Directors and
The Universities
That have made First Star Shine so bright over the last 10 Years.
On Sunday evening November 7, 2021, First Star will hold a one-hour virtual celebration honoring the 10 years of the First Star Academy program, first piloted in the summer of 2011 on campus at UCLA with the encouragement of Chancellor Block. Now, a decade and 14 Academies later, we have maintained an 87% conversion to post-secondary education for foster youth who statistically had a 9% chance without the help! The Celebration will include Scholars, Alumni, educators, and leaders from our University partners across the country. We will be recognizing those who have helped hundreds of young lives convert to happy futures.
