Hello,
In 2003 I received a JAWAUCB scholarship to attend CAL . I want to express my gratitude for the scholarship, it made my education possible. I also wanted share with you my accomplishments thus far, accomplishments which sprang from the academic opportunities that your scholarship helped provide. As an undergraduate at CAL I graduated with Honors in Psychology and with Distinction in General Scholarship. I entered graduate school in psychology at UCLA and earned my PhD earlier this year. I am now a Post-doctoral Fellow at UCSF studying the effects of acute stress on alcohol addiction.
I was very pleased to see on your website that your organization is going strong and providing support for young women beginning their educations.
Thank you,
Virginia Long

Hello,
I received two scholarships from your organization during my graduate years at CAL, and I thought I should let you know that I am filing my dissertation in a couple of days for the Department of East Asian Languages & Cultures. Receiving the scholarship meant a lot to me then, and I would like to thank you and your organization once again for your generosity.
Just so you know, my name is Carolyn Miyuki Wheeler, and my specialty is classical Japanese literature. I am receiving my doctoral degree this semester, thanks in part to your support.
Thank you!
C. Miki Wheeler
