Sponsored By Nisei Student Relocation Commemorative Fund, a national scholarship program created by Japanese Americans whose lives were disrupted by war during World War II and whose college students' studies were abruptly halted.  These students were  given the opportunity to complete their education and now they want to give back to society or “repay the kindness” shown them.  The scholarships specifically help Southeast Asian families whose lives were  disrupted by the Vietnam War to meet the need for resources to support their students' aspirations.   Help the Fund grow and more information at:  www.NSRCFund.org
