Wells Fargo’s Go College Now

Posted by Wells Fargo on November 9, 2015

Wells Fargo has sponsored showings of the film First Generation for more than 22,000 students, parents, teachers, and community leaders in recent years. The company contributed a total of nearly $72 million to education programs in 2014 alone. “First Generation” has inspired the students who have viewed it, says Valeria Esparza, marketing program manager for Wells Fargo Education Financial Services, which collaborated with the film’s producers Adam and Jay Fendersonon last year’s Go College! Now 10-city tour.

Wells Fargo has now expanded “First Generation’s” outreach, launching an innovative bilingual web platform — http://www.gocollegenow.org — to meet the growing demand. The website features free online streaming of the film, and classroom resources to help educators, parents, and students navigate the path to college. In addition, the site includes an opportunity to join the conversation about college access and success by encouraging everyone to “Take the Pledge” in support of first-generation and low-income students.

Join us for a webinar to learn more about Wells Fargo newest endeavor in the world of college access and success.
