BCS knows how to throw a picnic. A little food, some friendly competition, and the beautiful Berkeley Marina. Really - it's all about great company. BCS scholars, their families, alumni, mentors, & staff are great folks to spend a Sunday with. It doesn't matter if you graduated ten years ago or are just starting your journey, our scholars are making moves, doing big things and will still take time out to chill together. ❤️

This holiday season, we’re reflecting on the incredible progress we’ve made—thanks to YOU.

💡 Together, we’ve achieved:
📈 80% graduation rate within 4.5 years—3x the national average for similar demographics.
🎓 24 new college graduates ready to shape their futures and communities.
✨ Welcoming 21 new scholars in the Class of 2024, plus 9 transfers to bachelor’s programs.

Your support fuels our mission to ensure every Berkeley public high school graduate has a fair chance to earn a college degree. Together, we’re building a brighter, more equitable future—one scholar at a time.

💛 Thank you for walking alongside us and believing in our scholars.
