At I Know I Can, we’re committed to empowering students to pursue their dreams through education and opportunity. Our programs and resources support students every step of the way, from preparing for college to navigating their career paths.
We’re proud to highlight the stories of students who have overcome challenges, reached their goals, and are making their dreams a reality. These students are a testament to the power of hard work, perseverance, and the impact of a community that believes in their potential.
“When I came to the U.S. from Guinea, I didn’t speak any English. Two years later, I’m taking AP English, competing in coding competitions, and working with my I Know I Can advisor to pursue my dream of studying computer science engineering at MIT.”
“My advisor helped empower me to feel like college was 100% an option for me and was accessible. I’m not sure I would have believed that without his help.”
“My I Know I Can advisor and one of my teachers made me feel seen — like I was more than my grades. They believed in me, and that gave me the push I needed.”
“My parents are so proud and supportive of my academic pursuits and my sisters showed me the value of working hard and staying focused. But I Know I Can played an integral part in where I am now—a college graduate with a bright future.”
