Ong Memorial Scholarship

The William and Florence Ong Memorial Scholarship – Year Two

We are honored to continue the William and Florence Ong Memorial Scholarship for its second year, celebrating the enduring legacy of my beloved parents while empowering high school and college students in their educational journey.

This annual $1,000 scholarship reflects the core values my parents instilled—compassion, resilience, and the power of community. We are committed to supporting individuals who exemplify these principles and are dedicated to making a meaningful impact on the world around them.

To ensure a fair and inclusive selection process, we are offering three distinct paths for applicants:

1. Community Impact Award

Do you know someone who has made a difference in their community? Nominate them! We are looking for inspiring stories of individuals who have gone above and beyond to support and uplift others. The scholarship will be awarded to the nominee whose impact story resonates most with our selection committee.

2. Leadership Recognition

Are you or someone you know a natural leader? Whether it’s through school projects, extracurricular activities, or community initiatives, we want to honor those who demonstrate outstanding leadership. Teachers, mentors, or peers can submit nominations, and the scholarship will be awarded to the student whose leadership stands out.

3. Perseverance and Grit Award

Success is often built on perseverance, resilience, and the ability to overcome challenges. This award recognizes individuals who have faced significant obstacles—whether personal, academic, or financial—and have demonstrated unwavering determination in the pursuit of their goals. We want to celebrate those who refuse to give up and continue striving for excellence despite adversity.

We invite you to take part in this opportunity and apply for the William and Florence Ong Memorial Scholarship. Let’s continue to honor my parents’ legacy by supporting the next generation of leaders and changemakers.
