Bright Futures Changes Lives!

The PCEF Bright Futures program walks alongside Park City's first-generation students as they prepare for, succeed in, and graduate college. We make a long-term commitment to our students, providing a college-readiness curriculum, individualized coaching, peer support and financial assistance from 10th grade through college graduation - a minimum of seven years.

Success Rates: 

  • 98% matriculation rate straight from high school (compared to 52% nationwide average for first generation students battling income inequality)
  • 83% of college students progressing toward graduation (compared to an 11% nationwide college graduation rate)
  • 53 college students are receiving the $1,000/year Bright Futures scholarship (first cohorts received $2500/year).
    Must maintain 3.0 GPA in high school and 2.5 GPA in college. 

Give to Those Destined to Give Back 

PCEF Bright Futures is funded entirely through donor support. This includes the costs of running the program as well as scholarships and need-based financial support for students. Your generosity is impacting students and their families for generations to come.

Thank you for helping our students pursue their college dreams!
