✨ A night of celebration. A legacy of impact. A future full of promise. ✨

For more than 35 years, College Bound has been opening doors, creating opportunities, and empowering students to achieve their dreams.

This year, we're proud to celebrate an incredible milestone:

🎓 100% of the Class of 2026 graduated from high school.
📚 100% earned at least one college acceptance.

These achievements are made possible by the dedication of our students, families, mentors, supporters, alumni, and community partners who believe in the power of education and opportunity.
As we reflect on the stories, successes, and unforgettable moments from EYC 2026, we are reminded that when a community comes together, brighter futures become possible.
To the Class of 2026: We believe in you, we are proud of you, and we can't wait to see what you'll accomplish next.
💙 Thank you for helping us build stronger communities and brighter futures for generations to come.

A powerful evening of mentorship, opportunity, and community! 🎓✨

The The University Club of Washington, DC hosted the third and final session of University Bound, a workshop series designed to expose College Bound seniors to a wide range of career professionals and pathways to success.

We were honored to welcome CB alumni panelists Eboni Ellis and Jaron Hickman, who shared their experiences and insights with our students.

The evening also included the presentation of three $1,500 scholarships to outstanding CB seniors Bryan, Javon, and Raina. 👏

This decades-long partnership is a true testament to the power of COMMUNITY. Special thanks to the University Club and the Community Affairs Committee for continuing to invest in the next generation.

SUPPORT OUR WORK 💙

Our students had an incredible opportunity to visit the Supreme Court of the United States yesterday! ⚖️

From learning about the judicial system to exploring one of the nation’s most important institutions, the experience was both inspiring and educational. We are proud to continue exposing our students to opportunities that broaden their knowledge, leadership, and future aspirations.
