Freshman Fresh

More Than Move-In Day

Freshman Fresh helps students from foster care begin college with more than supplies. It gives them a welcoming start, a prepared space, and a community of support as they step into a new season of independence.

Through dorm essentials, school supplies, mentorship, wellness resources, and year-round connection, we help students feel seen, supported, and ready to thrive.
