Our Vision

Mana Summer Bridge Program

Rooted in culture and driven by purpose, Mana at College of San Mateo has grown into a powerful movement for Pacific Islander and first-generation students. For over a decade, Mana has elevated voices across the Bay Area, throughout California, and on national platforms in higher education. From conferences and policy panels to pioneering student research, Mana continues to center culture, identity, and academic excellence in all that we do.

In partnership with College of San Mateo’s Mana program, Decolonise All proudly helped launch the first-ever Mana Summer Bridge in 2025—a groundbreaking initiative designed to support Pacific Islander and first-generation students as they begin their college journey.

These sessions not only connect students to one another and to college life, but also introduce them to the exciting world of STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Math)—where they are encouraged to thrive, lead, and innovate—guided by culture and supported by community.

At Decolonise All, we believe that culturally responsive education is critical to long-term success. This collaboration reflects our ongoing commitment to uplifting Pacific Islander youth through curriculum, partnerships, and spaces that affirm identity and belonging.

Centering Equity & Empowerment

STEAM goes beyond facts and formulas. It’s about empowering students to shape the world they envision. Every student deserves access to meaningful learning, supportive environments grounded in cultural humility and justice, and opportunities to pursue innovation rooted in their identity.
