Our Scholarship Program
There are many bright, eager students, who often travel far after school to attend the classes. Rain or shine, we always have some enthusiastic and committed students. Some of these young adults would love to continue studying after high school, but many cannot afford the University fees, cost of living or the cost of applying for University.
Since 2015, our scholarship program has successfully supported nine students thus far through their first and second year of university, covering the costs of tuition and living expenses.
SAE LAO assists these students with all the support we can give. However, as a grass roots nonprofit, we have limited resources to maintain the program every year. In order to provide financial support for these students to make it through all of the costs of their higher education journeys, we need your help!
If you would like to assist in sponsoring these talented, dedicated children please donate.
