Dear
Lem Scholarship and Award Applicant,
Have
you ever wondered what is the secret for success in life? Why have some people become professionals
like doctors, engineers, or prominent politicians, while others are stuck as
cashiers, barely scraping by while still others are perfectly content to sit at
home collecting welfare?
There
are many factors involved in a person’s success and each case is
different. A common ingredient for
success is motivation. Successful
people are always motivated. They have the courage to take-on the challenges in
their daily lives and are willing to do whatever it takes to conquer these
obstacles. For these people, their
challenges will be ongoing throughout their lives. As each task is completed,
the next one will follow close behind. The successful person will be able to
focus on continually rising to the next level of difficulty.
The
Lem Si Ho Tong’s Scholarship Committee was first formed in 1979. Although it has recently merged with the
youth committee, its goal to motivate our young members has not changed. The ultimate goal of the Scholarship
Committee is to motivate our young members to challenge the difficulties they
face with their best effort, always. Over our 21 years of operation, the
committee is proud to report that many of the past recipients have become
prominent professionals. If we were able to provide some inspiration and
motivation in shaping the careers of our youth, then our countless hours of
volunteer work would have been well spent.
Once
again it is that time of year to send in your application for the Lem Si Ho
Tong scholarship and awards. Remember
you must have participated in two youth events in the past year to
qualify. Our intention in setting this
rule is genuine and pure. We just want
to get to know you, our future members and quite possibly our future board
members. Also, we want you to get to know your tong and the benefits that are
waiting at your disposal
Good
luck to everyone. Hope to see you all
at the podium on August 27.
