"Every year the burden on parents increases, the expenses are higher, many of our peers have to drop out of school to work to help their families, missing out on their dreams and hopes," Hong shared.
According to Hong, the scholarships and school supplies are meaningful gifts, encouraging us to strive, be confident in our studies, and successfully fulfill our dreams. Hong also promised on behalf of the students to try to be good and study well.
