🌟 Who's the girl in the photo? An update on Rosie! 🌟
A few years ago, I met Rosie while she was working as a cashier at El Pollo Loco. We struck up a conversation, and when she told me she was a first-gen student, I knew I had to encourage her to get more involved on the UCLA campus. Fast forward to today, and Rosie is thriving in her doctoral program in psychology! 🎓✨
Rosie’s story reminds me of my own journey as a first-gen student—navigating unfamiliar spaces, finding community, and pushing through. It’s why I’m so passionate about supporting others like her (and me!) through initiatives like our First Gen & Juice collab with The First-Gen Shop and OneGoal.
By supporting this fundraiser, you’re helping students like Rosie access the opportunities they need to thrive in higher ed. 💪🏽 Your purchase of a First Gen & Juice tee directly empowers first-gen students on their academic journey, with a portion of proceeds supporting !
