Championing Student Success The Hong Kong Alumni Club helps today’s students realize their dreams. In addition to hosting sendoff events for admitted students, alumni in Hong Kong embraced the idea of endowing a scholarship. The effort was anchored by lead donors Donald Choi BArch 82 P 07 and RISD Fund cochair Norman Chan BArch 85. Club leaders Choi, Frank Chow BLA 92 and Rex Wong BArch 03 encouraged alumni to give and organized a series of fundraising efforts to support the scholarship and generate a broad base of support. Alumni donated their artwork for auctions benefitting the scholarship, and the club held special dinners and other events to raise additional funds. The club endowed the Hong Kong Alumni Club Endowed Scholarship in 2016 and continues to raise funds to increase the amount of the annual scholarship award.
