America Needs You Student Recruitment Toolkit

America Needs You fights for economic mobility for low-income, first-generation college students. We do this through The Fellows program, our intensive two-year mentorship program; and FirstGenU, our career readiness e-learning courses designed specifically to bridge the gap between college access and career readiness.

Help us spread the word and connect ambitious students with opportunity today!

Purpose of this Toolkit

To introduce students and advocates to America Needs You and help recruit Fellows and FirstGenU participants via social media platforms such as Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. It is crucial to provide first-generation college students with access to career readiness training and bridge the network gap to ensure the next generation of leaders reflects the true diversity of our country.
