For more than 18 years, the Ho-Ching Scholarship has been awarded to Maryknoll students of good academic standing and financial need who demonstrate outstanding leadership and service to the community. Established in 2002 by Class of 1963 alumni Galen Ho and Patricia Ching Ho, the program aims to cultivate and nurture young leaders. Kit-U Wong ’06, a former Ho-Ching Scholar who now serves as an academic dean and economics teacher at Maryknoll, says the scholarship made a significant difference in her life. “I was very grateful to be a recipient of the Ho-Ching Scholarship, because it lessened the financial burden on my parents,” she says. “Mr. and Mrs. Ho’s dedication to living a life of Noblesse Oblige is inspirational and has definitely shaped my personal values.”
