Invest in the Future and Fund a Scholarship Today! Scholarships do more than ease financial burdens; they fuel aspirations and turn dreams into reality. With your donation, you will be helping deserving students achieve their academic goals. In response to a study conducted by the Pew Research Center, finding that only 27% of Vietnamese adults over 25 years of age hold at least a 4-year college degree, ICAN expanded our focus to include working with youth and started the ICAN's INSPIRE Scholarship program in 2018 to help Vietnamese-American students pursue a higher education who may lack the financial ability to do so. This isn't possible alone! Join us in making a difference and help pave the way for future generations. Donate here: bit.ly/donate-ican-inspire
