Beyond his success in the business sector, Graham has made a lasting impact in higher education and student opportunity. He is a co-founder of TheDream.US, the nation's largest scholarship fund for DREAMers, and previously served as chairman of the District of Columbia College Access Program (DC-CAP), where he continues to serve on the board.
Through DC-CAP, more than 23,000 students in Washington, D.C., have been helped to enroll in college, with scholarships totaling more than $33 million.
His commitment to expanding access to education reflects OLLU's own mission and holds special meaning in communities where higher education can open doors, strengthen families, and transform lives. Graham's experience is a powerful reminder that business success can go hand in hand with a deep investment in students and the future of our society.
