The Boston HERC has been life-giving to students and their families and I am grateful to enthusiastically support this important work for the future success of first-generation students in post-secondary settings. The staff of Boston HERC care deeply for their students and are committed to their high school completion and career success.

The Boston HERC is an urban oasis for students of color.  To be a fly on the wall in a Boston HERC classroom is to be at ground zero of a community transforming program that enables at-risk Latino, and other disadvantaged youth, to gain access to higher education, break the cycle of poverty, and become leaders in their communities.  The Imago Dei Fund is honored to partner with the Boston HERC.
