Driving Forward is hosting the annual Driving A Difference fundraiser on Thursday, September 24th, featuring food, drinks, prizes, a patio on the Chicago River, and a $1,000 scholarship for each college student in the Winter 2027 Flagship Program.

At Driving Forward, we believe that every college student should have an equal opportunity to achieve their career objectives and create a better future for themselves and their communities. Subscribe to our newsletter = https://drivinforward.space/contact-2/ We strive to achieve this vision by empowering first-generation and under-resourced college students to successfully transition from college to a meaningful career through a supportive professional development, mentorship, and experiential learning community. We are a 501(c)3 non-profit with an award-winning flagship internship program that provides professional development, mentorship opportunities, and a business-focused curriculum. The program is offered through partnerships with a range of organizations and hundreds of dedicated, professional and executive volunteers. We bring together diverse, high-achieving students, helping them to overcome financial or other challenges to achieve their career dreams.
