Scholarship   [ Scholarship Dinner ]

This is Chi Am's major educational service project. We award the accomplishments of graduating Asian American high school, and community college students annually. Deserving students are honored with scholarships sponsored by Chi-Am and individual Club members. A keynote guest will be on hand to present the awards and will speak to the audience at the award dinner.
