History

Posse Bay Area is our 10th and newest city, founded thanks to the generosity of the Walter and Elise Haas Fund, The Leon Lowenstein Foundation, The Silver Giving Foundation and members of the Posse Bay Area Advisory Board. Jeff Ubben, who served 10 years as a transformational chair on Posse’s National Board of Directors, was particularly motivated to bring the Posse program to his home city.

Posse is grateful to the teachers, counselors and community leaders of the Bay Area, who help us identify incredible high school students. We especially thank our partner colleges and universities for their investments in the program and belief in the promise of Posse Scholars.
