Ambassadors Program

Our Mission

The LUCA Ambassadors Program empowers first-generation college students and alumni to lead with purpose, share their stories, and build meaningful connections. Ambassadors elevate awareness of the first-generation experience while inspiring new champions to join LUCA’s mission of expanding access to higher education.

Our Vision

The LUCA Ambassadors Program envisions a thriving Scholar community where first-generation college students are recognized as leaders, their voices shape the narrative of educational equity, and their journeys inspire a broader movement of advocacy, support, and first-generation success.
