Amy Lowell Scholarship for American Poets Traveling Abroad. The Steve S. Kang Scholarship Fund - Background & Purpose. On April 2, 1998, Steve S, Kang was killed in an automobile accident.
He was just 28 and a graduate student at the University of Southern California's Film School. At the time of his death, Steve was working hard to complete a film for a school project. This film was funded in part by a scholarship that he had received the previous year. Following Steve's death, many friends and family members thought it would be an appropriate memorial to Steve to establish a scholarship fund in his name. To date more than one hundred individuals and organizations have donated money and talents to The Fund. We established The Fund on the principle that funding is often a critical need to talented individuals who are developing their careers as artists and scholars.
Scholarships or fellowships sponsored by The Fund will assist young artists and scholars toward obtaining undergraduate, graduate or postgraduate training and creating projects that promote the arts and sciences. Capture the Dream, Inc. The goal of our scholarship fund is to help eliminate one of the leading obstacles preventing single parents and minority students from attending college – the soaring cost of tuition.
We believe that when all students have the opportunity to attend college, our society thrives. If we provide these talented students with the means to higher education, we may be developing the future leaders of the Bay Area – and of the world. On average, tuition for higher education increases annually by 8% – thereby effectively doubling the cost of tuition every nine years (FinAid.org 2012).

NEW YORK, April 1, 2014 – Leticia Smith, a Sociology and Social Work Major at Humboldt State University in Arcata, Cal., took the top prize of $2,000 in The Christophers’ Twenty-Sixth Annual Video Contest for College Students for her video entitled “The Right Way.” Against a backdrop of corresponding pictures and video montages, Smith explains how her inner-city upbringing inspired her to pursue the study of sociology.
All of her philanthropic work throughout college, from volunteering at Habitat for Humanity to serving meals at homeless shelters in Arcata, has only strengthened her resolve to give more of herself to others in need. “It [my charity work] made me more determined to help troubled youth because I’ve known what it’s like not to have someone help you through life,” Smith concludes. “I plan on opening up an alternative house for troubled youth, where they can come and live if…they live in troubled communities where they can’t get away from the violence.
