Our goal

Roxanne Hoegger Alejandre is an incredible colleague who has advocated for over 20 years to better the lives of survivors of domestic violence, sexual assault, and human trafficking in the San Francisco Bay Area. One of Roxanne’s special projects was providing advice and legal representation for disadvantaged pregnant or parenting teens at Hilltop High. This work allowed her to directly impact lives and to help teens see all of their potential and go after their dreams. This fund will be used to create a scholarship that commemorates Roxanne’s work by supporting pregnant or parenting students who are pursuing post-secondary education. Our goal is to award a $5,000 scholarship, and continue to do so annually for as long as funds will allow.
