Evelyn Rojas

Evelyn Rojas is a recent UC Santa Barbara graduate from San Jose, CA. She was rasied by an undocumented, single mother- who is a survivor of domestic violence. Her mom did everything she could with low-income housing, food stamps and long work hours. Evelyn was part of the first class to ever graduate from Rocketship Public Schools at Rocketship Mateo Sheedy in 2010. She became the first in her family to attend and graduate from college. Evelyn is one of 8 siblings and now works to support her family back home. She is giving back to her community at Rocketship Spark Academy as a CareCorps Coordinator.
