 In the heart of Michoacán, Mexico, a child was born to Salvador Covarrubias and Albertina Garcia, a child who would grow up to challenge the boundaries of what’s possible for undocumented immigrants in the United States. This child, Sergio Covarrubias Garcia, born on March 1, 1977, would become a beacon of hope and a symbol of the indomitable human spirit. His journey from an undocumented immigrant to the first to be admitted to the State Bar of California since the inclusion of citizenship status in bar applications is a testament to perseverance, resilience, and the unwavering pursuit of the American Dream.

 Understanding the value of support and the impact of education, Sergio established the Sergio C. Garcia Foundation. Through his foundation, he has provided scholarships to students facing financial hardships, ensuring that the next generation has the resources to pursue their dreams, regardless of their background or legal status.

Sergio C. Garcia Foundation raises funds through various channels, including fundraising events and Garcia’s speaking engagements. Garcia generously shares his speaking fees with the foundation, underscoring his commitment to the cause. As of early 2014, the foundation had raised $55,000, a testament to the community’s support for Garcia’s mission and the foundation’s objectives.

Sergio Covarrubias Garcia’s journey from an undocumented immigrant to a successful attorney and philanthropist is a narrative of hope, resilience, and unwavering belief in the promise of the American Dream. His story is a reminder that barriers are meant to be broken and that the pursuit of justice and equality knows no boundaries. Sergio’s life work inspires and paves the way for future generations to achieve their fullest potential, proving that great legacies are born from humble beginnings
