IMAGINE!

Imagine a future where every student can chase their dreams without the burden of college debt. Since 2016, the San Diego Promise has been turning this vision into reality, offering two years of free college tuition to more than 6,000 students across the San Diego Community College District.

Imagine for a moment the transformative power behind the San Diego Promise. To unlock even more potential, we need your support to grow this life-changing program, giving more students the chance to transfer to a four-year university or enter the workforce with confidence and freedom from financial burden. On October 29, during our Keeping the Promise Giving Day, every donation will directly impact the dreams and imaginations of San Diego Promise students at City, Mesa, and Miramar colleges.

When our community comes together — students, faculty, staff, and supporters alike — we can help empower hardworking students to achieve their personal, professional, and educational aspirations. Your gift, no matter the size, can help us keep the SDCCD’s promise of free education alive and thriving. Imagine that! To donate today, scroll down to the form below.

Graphic says $3,711 annual cost to support one student for two years includes a yearly $500 book voucher.

Graphic reads 83 percent of promise students will complete two full years of college compared to 71 percent of non promise students.

I have made lifelong connections with my counselors and students. My mom says no one can steal an education from you. As the first college graduate in my family my mom is so proud of me.
