A Bridge to Success Story

Arriving in the U.S. from a small village in the south of Mauritania, West Africa, with only $150 in his pocket, Alassane Ngaide used some of that money to purchase two new basic English books so that he could teach himself English. That was in 2000. Alassane’s parents had just sold all their belongings in order to send him to the United States so that he—one of nine children—could help support his family and hopefully earn a college degree. By 2015, Alassane was named City Tech’s valedictorian, graduating with a degree in Computer Engineering.

It would be a shame to lose promising students like Alassane, because their funds just don't stretch far enough.

Join us in bridging that gap.
