Help get these high school students to ECAASU 2014

ECAASU's High School Leadership Ambassadors Program needs your help



The East Coast Asian American Student Union is a nonprofit whose mission is to inspire, educate, and empower those interested in Asian American and Pacific Islander issues. You may have heard of the annual ECAASU conference, the oldest and largest Asian American collegiate conference in the United States.

In 2013, the High School Ambassadors Leadership Program (HSALP) was started in an effort to expand ECAASU's constituency to high school students. I recently heard from Olivia Lu, who has been mentoring a group of eight students from the DC and New York metro areas in AAPI issues and advocacy work.

This year, the plan is to send the HSALP students to the 2014 ECAASU Conference, going down next month in Washington DC. In order to make that happen, they need to raise funds to the finance the trip. Can you help get them to the conference?
