Website Mission Membership Benefits
Mission The Wharton Graduate 1Gen Club (Wharton 1Gen) aims to, first, cultivate community amongst Wharton MBA students who share invisible first-generation low-income (FGLI) backgrounds, and, second, mentor other FGLI students aspiring to work in business. Wharton 1Gen also aims to develop allyship programming that has far-reaching impact in business and education access for socioeconomically disadvantaged students and young professionals, bringing together FGLI and non-FGLI business school students to engage in discussions around class privilege and socioeconomic inequality, in order to create stronger and more effective FGLI advocates amongst the next generation of business leaders.
Membership BenefitsAt 1Gen, we believe in the importance of inclusivity. It's free to join and we welcome allies in addition to those who identify as FGLI!
