The 2023-2024 school year is well under way, and our Peer Leaders are already hard at work! As their peers returned to class this fall, our students worked tirelessly to develop their First 30-Days Campaigns to set their classmates up for success as they prepare to navigate the financial aid and college application process. The purpose of the First 30-Days Campaign is for Peer Leaders to connect with students, staff, and parents throughout their school and community. This allows them to distribute key application information to those who need it.
Curious to see the First 30 Days Campaign in practice? Check out these posts by some of our PeerForward teams!
