About

Welcome

In a sentence, parentheses are used to represent an aside or an extra piece of information that is closely related to the main subject. In America, we immigrants are also part of a greater whole but uniquely distinct in our multicultural backgrounds. Depiction of a parenthesis in our JSKY logo not only symbolizes this proud heritage of diversity but also celebrates a shared sense of belonging to this great nation. So we challenge you- fill in your own parenthesis, define who you are and what our future will be.

Introduction

In 2007, family and friends established a memorial scholarship in honor of Jeff Sein Kwan Yang. The scholarship aims to provide financial support to students who are immigrants or children of immigrants in their pursuit of higher education. It is open to students of all ethnic backgrounds who reside in the San Gabriel Valley. Students from low-income or working-class families are especially encouraged to apply.

Jeff Sein Kwan Yang believed an education broadened a person’s opportunities and possibilities. The Jeff Sein Kwan Yang Scholarship hopes to empower immigrant youths to obtain their dreams and to encourage them to give back to their community.

Applications must be received by May 1, 2021. They may be emailed or mailed. For any questions or concerns, please contact us at jeffseinkwanyangscholarship@gmail.com
