LooKing Into the Future

Students today face many challenges and obstacles in the pursuit of a higher education.

Lack of resources

A Message from the Founding CEO

In some Los Angeles schools, the counselor-to-student ratio is 1:1,250 or higher.

Low expectations Students are challenged by negative peer pressure and a lack of positive role models.

Economic hardship Students face family pressure to enter the workforce and contribute to the family income.

No perceived alternative Students who are the first in their family to graduate from high school may not see the long-term benefits of college.

The Fulfillment Fund invests in educationally underserved and economically disadvantaged students by providing: • Mentoring • Classroom instruction • College tours and other experiential learning opportunities • One-on-one college counseling • Scholarships and stipends • Internship services

“I never had anyone motivating me to go to college. Throughout high school, there were days when I couldn’t care less about the work and, in the long run, the opportunities that were ahead of me. The Fulfillment Fund has shown me that being successful begins in the classroom and that through hard work and accepting help from others, anything is possible.”

I’m very pleased and proud to share we are celebrating the most extraordinary year thanks to the thoughtful, generous and ongoing support of so many people in our community who care about the future of our young people.

We are celebrating the high school graduations of 91% of our students and 93% of these students will be attending colleges and universities in California and throughout the country.

Congratulations to the students and their families for their hard work and perseverance through very difficult times to make this possible.

And, thanks too, to our dedicated staff, board, donors and community partners who are celebrating the dramatic changes in the direction of thousands of young lives every year.

In the 2010–11 school year, we worked with nearly 1,700 students and will be working with 2,000 in the 2011–2012 year, thanks to the generosity of all of you who support us every day as mentors, community partners, donors and sponsors with your incredible commitment to helping young people realize successful and contributing lives.

• In the early 1970’s, at the urging of Gary Gitnick, MD, staff at UCLA held a holiday party for youth with disabilities. In 1977, Harvey Shapiro, Cherna and Dr. Gitnick incorporated the effort as a non-profit called the Fulfillment Fund.

• The Scholars Day Luncheon was created to bring students together with adult role models.

• Andrea Cockrum joined the Fulfillment Fund as Executive Director and first full-time staff member. The Fulfillment Fund began to offer college scholarships, and soon became one of the largest private providers of scholarships in southern California.

Impact & Accomplishments Here’s a look at how the Fulfillment Fund’s classroom instruction, mentoring, and scholarship programs helped students overcome obstacles in the pursuit of a higher education in the 2010–11 school year.

“If it were not for the Fulfillment Fund, I would not have been interested in college. It’s changed my life. The Fulfillment Fund pushed me to apply for scholarships and made sure that I could financially provide for myself for college. The Fulfillment Fund steered me into the right direction and showed me the path to success.”

—Samuel Wondim

Gertz-Ressler High School, class of 2011 Attending Pepperdine University

Classroom Instruction During the 2010–11 school year, 1,081 students participated in the Fulfillment Fund’s classroom program, also known as the College Access Program (CAP).

• At the beginning of the year, students correctly answered 37% of questions about academic requirements needed for entrance to a four-year college or university, financial aid opportunities, and the college application process.

• By the end of the year, students correctly answered 70% of the same questions, demonstrating a significant growth in knowledge about the necessary steps to prepare for a future in college.

The Fulfillment Fund developed a proprietary program evaluation tool entitled the College Readiness Assessment (CRA), and conducts annual pre- and post-assessment surveys of students who participate in Fulfillment Fund programs to measure their beliefs about their ability to obtain a college education and their knowledge about what is required to do so.

Mentoring 254 students from 7th through 12th grades were enrolled in the Fulfillment Fund’s Mentor Program, in which a student is matched with an adult volunteer mentor who serves as a positive role model for a minimum of two years, helping to expose the student and his or her family to the long-term benefits of college.

• 100% of seniors surveyed said their mentor was helpful.

• 94% of seniors surveyed said their mentor program advisor, the Fulfillment Fund staff member who works with mentors and students, was helpful in preparing them for college.

Scholarships During the 2010–11 school year, the Fulfillment Fund awarded $351,627 in scholarships and textbook stipends, investing in 288 students, including 57 new scholarship recipients, who were selected based on academic merit and financial need.

Additionally, 89 students received a textbook stipend.

Impact & Accomplishments Here’s a look at how the Fulfillment Fund’s one-on-one college counseling, college tours, and Destination College event helped students overcome obstacles in the pursuit of a higher education in the 2010–11 school year.

“College always seemed so close when I met with the Fulfillment Fund.

I took so much from the workshops, the college trips and the guidance.

No other adults seemed as devoted and dedicated to the progression of disadvantaged yet determined youth as Fulfillment Fund staff members.”

—Gladys Aparicio

Gertz-Ressler High School class of 2011 Attending UC Berkeley

Student Profile: Licetz Montoya

College Counseling The counselor-to-student ratio in many LAUSD schools is 1:1,250 or higher, whereas the counselor-to-student ratio for Fulfillment Fund students is 1:250. College counseling priority is given to assisting juniors and seniors through the college admissions, essay writing, financial aid, and college matching process.

• 92% of 11th and 12th grade students received at least one Fulfillment Fund college counseling session during fall 2010 and spring 2011.

THEN

Destination: College

The Fulfillment Fund came into Licetz’s life while she was attending Gertz-Ressler High School near downtown Los Angeles, providing in-depth college counseling, group instruction through the College Access Program, college visits, and eventually a college scholarship.

More than 500 participants attended the Fulfillment Fund’s 14th annual daylong college preparatory event in Oct. 2010 at Occidental College, taking part in workshops about college admissions, financial aid, leadership skills and college life. Dozens of representatives from colleges and universities across the country were present to share information about their campus, programs and admissions process.

• Before Destination College 14, 44% of students reported being “very certain” about attending college in the future. After the event, 77% of students were “very certain.”

College Trips Fulfillment Fund campus site visits for college-bound students in the 2010–11 academic year included three intensive overnight trips to numerous colleges and universities, including UC Santa Cruz, Santa Clara University, San Jose State, Stanford, University of San Francisco, Mills College, CSU East Bay, UC Berkeley, UC Davis, UC Riverside, Pomona College, Pitzer College, Harvey Mudd, Scripps, Claremont McKenna and CSU San Bernardino, UC San Diego, Point Nazarene University, San Diego State and University of San Diego. Eight non-overnight trips included visits to Pepperdine, Cal State Northridge, UCLA, Santa Monica College, Loyola Marymount University, and University of Redlands.

• Before students visited the campuses, they reported being likely to apply to 24% of the schools visited.

• After the trips, students reported being likely to apply to 63% of the schools visited.

Licetz grew up in South Los Angeles with her parents and younger brother and sister. Her father battled alcoholism, and was permanently disabled by a back injury. The family lost their home, moved to a room above her aunt and grandmother’s house. At times they didn’t have heat or hot water, and food was scarce.

NOW In 2011, Licetz became the first member of her family to attend college. Having been accepted at ten schools across the country in spring 2011, Licetz enrolled at the University of Southern California (USC), where she lives on campus. In addition to carrying a full course load, she plans to study abroad, get involved in tutoring projects, and find other ways to serve the community. Licetz was the top Fulfillment Fund college scholarship recipient in 2011.

Today her brother and sister now attend her high school, and both participate in Fulfillment Fund programs.

IN HER OWN WORDS “School was my salvation. The Fulfillment Fund helped me with essays, test-taking skills, managing my time, suggesting colleges I’d never heard of, taking me on a college trip to Northern California, even flying me to the East Coast and encouraging me to apply for all kinds of scholarships.”

“I became a peer counselor this year to share what I have learned from the Fulfillment Fund. They’ve made me feel like family for four years.”

At a time when less than 55% of LAUSD students are graduating, the fact that 91% of Fulfillment Fund students graduate and 93% go on to college is a major selling point.

Microsoft Store, paving the way for an ongoing relationship that will include Microsoft trainings and other events for students. He was a driving force in the creation of the Leadership Council, the Fulfillment Fund’s auxiliary support group of young professionals.

Under Michael’s leadership, members of CAA’s IT staff — including Leadership Council founding member Chris Wagner — have been invaluable in sourcing technology donations and are now developing a new web site for the Fulfillment Fund that will launch in 2012. In the 2011–12 school year, the CAA information technology department will host open-houses for Fulfillment Fund students to encourage them to pursue science, technology, engineering and mathematics, and learn more about careers in information technology.

Born and raised in Southern California, Michael says that improving quality and access to education in local public schools is a critical issue for him and his family. “I give back because it was how I was raised,” he says. “My parents made that an important part of growing up in my life.”

Giving back to the community, he says, is also part of the corporate culture of CAA, which founded the CAA Foundation led by Michelle Kydd Lee to inspire charitable giving by CAA staff and clients. “CAA says, ‘We’re going to focus on the community where we work and live.’ That focused effort has really moved the needle.

It’s really made a difference.”

“When I look at some of the most rewarding feelings I’ve had, it’s been around the Fulfillment Fund and other similar organizations where I’ve been able to help out.”

In 2011, a year in which only 55% of LAUSD students graduated high school, 91% of Fulfillment Fund students graduated high school, and 93% of Fulfillment Fund students went on to college.
