I am pleased to announce that for the 9th consecutive year, our organization is providing scholarship opportunities for Georgia High School students. During this span, InspirASIAN has awarded over $250,000 in scholarship financial support for Georgia students from our local chapter alone. The InspirASIAN scholarship program has provided an excellent opportunity to recognize Georgia students who not only excel in the classroom, but also demonstrate awareness of and participation in community diversity related activities.

Because InspirASIAN has both a “National” & “State” chapters - there are two categories of scholarships available, resulting in 38 scholarship opportunities for Georgia students:

• (27) - $2,000 “National” chapter awards

• (11) - $1,000 “Local” chapter awards

A single qualified application suffices. Any applicant who is not awarded a scholarship by the national chapter, will automatically default to his/her local level to compete for a respective state chapter award.

In 2020, twenty two students from the Georgia high school graduating class of 2019 received 4 national ($2,000) and 18 local ($1,000) InspirASIAN scholarship awards.

The deadline for accepting scholarship applications is midnight, January 31st, 2021.

The direct link for your students to submit their applications for the 2021 InspirASIAN Scholarship program is: https://inspirasian.us/programs/scholarship-program/

All applicants will be evaluated on the basis of their:

1. Scholastic and personal achievements

2. Leadership & Community involvement

3. Work Experience

4. Personal Essay

Award recipient notifications will be made in April - with monetary awards and a Certificate of Recognition from our organization provided in May. (Certificate & scholarship awards are sent directly to the student.) Upon selection & notification to all winners, we will also be notifying the students respective school so that they can be recognized at any scheduled awards event or graduation ceremony. InspirASIAN-Atlanta also sponsors a yearly Asian Heritage luncheon in May where the scholarship recipients who are able to attend can be recognized for their achievements, as meeting the students is definitely one of the highlights of our scholarship season. However, due to COVID-19 restrictions, this cannot be held. But we are looking at the possibility of a “Virtual” event in order to acknowledge 2021 award recipients.

If you have any questions regarding the InspirASIAN scholarship program that our website is unable to provide, please do not hesitate contacting me directly using the contact information listed below (email or mobile preferred), OR send an email to scholarship@inspirasian.us , and our national scholarship chairman and / or one of the team of volunteers can provide assistance.
