“All my life, helping children has been my single goal…. With the recent mishap of Sichuan, China, I am more determined than ever to take all my life lessons, experiences, and understandings in hope to serve the children who have lost everything. I want to pick them up and provide a way for them to get back on their feet. YEO’S Scholarship will definitely bring me one step closer to my goal.”
“Inscribed on the walls of England’s Liverpool Institute is, ‘Non nobis solum sed toti mundo nati,’ which means, ‘Not for ourselves only but for the good of the all the world.’ My life has paralleled this statement. As an avid volunteer, I have gained patient care experiences and become a responsible, active leader with goals to become a Physician Assistant and to contribute to a clinic that provides free health care to those in need….”
“….My dream is to be a psychologist, so that I can understand patients who have mental diseases, relieve their emotional pain, and contribute to the community that has provided me so much. Since last year, I have been volunteering at the American Cancer Society Asian Initiatives (ACS)…. YEO’S Scholarship Awards will help me to continue chasing my dream…”
“Looking back, I can still recall the morning when I first entered high school. Chinese operas was coiling mournfully on the stereo, as my mother and I drove silently towards school. We neared our destination when my mother finally spoke, “Do good in school,” she demanded…. She peered glaringly at me through her narrow eyes as if to sear her words into my memories. “Do good, because mommy have no money.” All I could do was smile. “I will, mommy,” I said. “I will make you proud.”
“With my college dream, I came here all the way from China 2 years ago. As being a Chinese, I have made a big effort to catch up my English Skill. I am a 11th Grader now, since I don’t worry about my English skill anymore, I started worrying about my college fate, I am scared that I am not able to afford my 4-year college. Therefore I am trying really hard to get any scholarship to accomplish my 4-year college dream. If I can get the YEO’S Scholarship Award, it’s going to help me a lot, it will be a big benefactor for my future.”
“YEO’S Scholarship may help me because… I will need to buy a pad lock, time tracker, PE clothes, and anything more. The school lunches might become more pricey, and because of school budget cuts, soon our library or science lab will be over. Even maybe music, or so my older sister says. Even when my school is public, I would take the money for donation to teachers in need and for more good novels. It would be amazing if I had won the scholarship even if it’s only $100, I know I may make a difference.”
“I have dreams of going to Harvard Medical School and becoming a surgeon. I will be able to go to Harvard because I will make the best of the scholarship, and because my mom has taught me the ways of money. I want to make a difference, but tuition will be hard to pay…. My parents and I have been saving money since I was born, but this scholarship will make my dream possible before it is too late. Help me YEO’S company, you’re my only hope.”
“YEO’S Scholarship will help my educational goals because I will use the money to buy books to get more knowledge. Knowledge is power! The more I read, my vocabulary and my reading level will increase. Also, I would use the [scholarship] to buy school supplies and supplies for projects. In conclusion, YEO’S Scholarship will help my educational goals.”
“A Scholarship can help me pay for some college cost since my family is not wealthy. It can also help me buy some better tools, like a laptop and a printer to improve my study so I can achieve my goal to become a doctor when I finish college. In return I can help even more people when I start my doctor career.”
“YEO’S Scholarship will allow me to continue studying at UCLA. In four years, I plan to complete my undergraduate in Psychobiology and earning a Bachelor of Science degree. Furthermore, I would like to attend graduate school working towards a Doctor of Pharmacy degree…”
