WAUKEGAN TO COLLEGE AT CHRIST CHURCH
Waukegan to College (W2C) creates brighter futures for students, families and communities by preparing students to enroll in and graduate from college. Ranging from 5th grade through college, our students and their families are highly motivated to overcome a lack of access to college preparation resources in their community. But there is more work to be done and you can create brighter futures and make more dreams come true. Please refer to the How Can I Help? section in our brochure.
