NAAAP NY Scholarship Sponsorships & Donations

 Why Donate/Sponsor?

  • College affordability is a huge problem. Asian American college students have highest amount of average unmet financial need* across income levels and school types.
  • Some Asian American groups are underrepresented in higher education. Southeast Asian Americans and Native Hawaiian/Pacific Islanders are more likely to live below the U.S. median household income and less likely to attend college.
  • College is often the first step to a financially secure future. Completion of a bachelor’s degree pays dividends over a person’s lifetime.
