The Goode Scholars Program is dedicated to fostering the personal development, academic success, and social growth of first-generation and urban population students. Through a variety of activities and experiences, the program aims to support these students' journey from matriculation to graduation, ensuring they persist and thrive academically. Fundraising efforts are crucial to the program's mission, providing emergency funds, book scholarships, graduate school fees, and opportunities for personal development such as leadership conferences. These resources ensure no Goode Scholar is left behind and empower graduates to make a significant impact in their communities, breaking generational cycles and serving as role models for what is possible.
