About

During Orange & Blue Week, make your gift to Support the First-Gen Scholars Research Program (FGSRP)!

This program connects first-generation college students eligible for federal work-study with the opportunity to participate in meaningful and high-impact research. FGSRP scholars build on their existing abilities within a supportive community of scholars. They also received matched mentorship with distinguished Illinois faculty, many of whom identify as first-generation themselves. Your donation is vital to supporting the continuation of innovative, high-impact programs such as this one.

  • For one week of the program, one scholar can be supported with a gift of $40.
  • For a month of the program, one scholar can be supported with a gift of $160.
  • For a semester of the program, one scholar can be supported with a gift of $650 or more.

Make your gift today to help us celebrate and empower our first gen Illini students!
