The Asian American Association (AAA) of Alhambra is now accepting applications for its annual scholarships, which support outstanding Alhambra Unified School District students in their educational endeavors. A $1,000 scholarship will be awarded to students from each AUSD high school. These scholarships are open to all AUSD seniors of Asian descent who plan to enroll in a post-secondary educational institution in fall of 2025. Students can submit applications at https://tinyurl.com/AAA2025Scholarship through Friday, December 20, 2024 at 11:59pm.
To raise funds for these scholarships (and additional scholarships for promoting AUSD eighth-graders), the AAA will host its highly-anticipated 35th Annual Scholarship Banquet on February 21, 2025 at NBC Restaurants in Monterey Park. This year’s event promises to be a vibrant celebration of the Year of the Snake, featuring a 10-course meal, traditional lion dancers, entertainment by our Mandarin dual immersion students, a spotlight on our scholarship recipients, and opportunity drawings for exciting prizes.
The banquet is not only an important fundraising event but also a community tradition that brings together families, local leaders, AUSD employees, and supporters of education. Attendees will enjoy an authentic Chinese banquet experience while celebrating the achievements of our young scholars.
Join us for an evening of delicious food, cultural performances, and the chance to win fantastic prizes, all while supporting the next generation of leaders in our community.
