About Us

*ImmiGreatness is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization

At ImmiGreatness, we see the value in everyone. We aspire to be a catalyst for positive change and we are driven by the same ideas our organization was initially founded upon: support, empowerment, and progress. The seed for ImmiGreatness was planted by a passion to aid immigrants and children of immigrants as they integrate into an American society. 

Cultural differences, language barriers, financial restrictions, and a multitude of other factors make attaining success inequitable for immigrants compared to the rest of the nation.

The team at ImmiGreatness understands and empathizes with the hardships that come with building a life in a different country, which is why each one of us is here to wholeheartedly help in navigating education, careers, and everything in-between. 

​Our main areas of focus are educational assistance and career guidance, but we are happy to assist with other general services, as well. Learn more under the programs tab.
