Description
The REACH Student Success Center (formerly Chico Student Success Center) stands as a pillar of support for first-generation and historically underserved students, offering tailored assistance from outreach to graduation. Our program pairs first-year students with a peer and faculty mentor, enrolls them into a college success course, and provides opportunities for social connections through various programming and community events.
Within our nurturing and inclusive learning community, the REACH staff meets students where they are, fostering an environment for them to thrive. Your support will enable us to acquire textbooks and course materials for our students, ensuring their academic journey is well-equipped.

Help REACH students fulfill their dreams!
Thanks to generous donors last Giving Day, we directly supported dozens of students by covering the costs of their textbooks and course materials! With your donations this year, our aim is to help even more first-generation students afford their expensive textbooks and materials.
Here's what one student, who received a textbook scholarship last semester, had to say:
Textbooks are essential for college success. REACH's financial support saved me from asking my parents or using my own funds. It relieved financial stress for all of us. No need to worry about finding books; the REACH Center took care of it for me!
Why are donations necessary?
Your generous contribution directly supports students facing financial challenges due to the rising costs of education. Your donation helps provide essential materials for those in genuine need, making a significant impact on their educational journey. Stand with us in supporting these resilient students for a brighter future.
Thank you for all of your support!
