Greater New York Chinese Dollars for Scholars is the only chapter established to benefit students of Chinese descent. Established in October of 2004, the goal of the Greater NY Chinese Dollars for Scholars is to mobilize community-based fundraising for scholarships awarded to outstanding students. The chapter also offers a variety of academic support programs connecting students with resources in the community -- including admissions and financial aid information, mentoring and professional networking opportunities as well as career development and life skills workshops. We continue to engage with our scholars during and after college, and the scholarship fosters a culture of giving back encouraging and supporting scholars not only to achieve their own success but also to give back to the community. 

All board members of the Greater NY Chinese Dollars for Scholars participate on a volunteer basis and oversee the scholarship awards to ensure that funds are directed to qualified applicants in the local community. The Greater NY Chinese  Dollars for Scholars is a 501(c)(3) organization. All contributions are tax deductible to the extent permitted by law. All proceeds will be used towards scholarships for qualified students to help them achieve their full potential.
