Want to see these places in person? 👀

Our Braven CHF Fellows are taking you on a tour of their favorite spots on the hill — the places that made their experience what it is. From study spots to hangout corners, this is what community looks like. 🏡✨

The catch? Applications close tomorrow. 🚨

If you’ve been on the fence, this is your sign. Come be part of the next cohort and create your own favorite spots on the hill.

🎉 Big news worth celebrating: Braven New Jersey received our first-ever line item appropriation from the State of New Jersey and we got to celebrate it in person with the woman who championed it every step of the way, State Senator Renee Burgess.

This isn’t just about a number. It’s a vote of confidence in our students, our staff, and the work we do every day to help talented young people go further in college and launch strong careers. It means more coaching, more career prep, more doors opened, and more students stepping into their first jobs ready to thrive.

We’re endorsing this moment the way we try to live every day at Braven by Proving the Possible and Going Together, Go Further. None of this happens alone, and we are so grateful for partners like Senator Burgess and Assembly-Sponsor Assemblywoman Pintor Marin who believe in what’s possible when you invest in people.

Thank you, Senator Burgess, for visiting our office and for standing behind our mission in Trenton. And thank you to Senators M. Teresa Ruiz and Assembly Members Annette Quijano, Carmen Theresa Morales, William Sampson, James Kennedy, Roy Freiman, Michael Venezia, William Spearman and Kevin Egan for co-sponsoring the legislation.

Here’s to reaching more students, together. ❤️
