2017 hashi.org American Scholarships Are Here!

Hashi.org, a nonprofit focusing on education and cultural exchange, is accepting applications for its Study/Travel Scholarship. The deadline is August 15th, 2017. Each year, hashi.org awards three $1000 scholarships - one to a Japanese, one to a Korean, and one to an American. The second of three $1000 scholarships is being offered in 2017 for an American citizen interested in international cultural exchange opportunities with either South Korea or Japan. Decisions are based on the applicant's essay, which should clearly explain how the scholarship would be used, and how well the applicant’s intentions fit with hashi.org’s mission statement. The scholarships can be used for a variety of overseas programs such as those offered on www.hashi.org -  including, but not limited to: home stays, student exchange, volunteering, work, etc.

Hashi.org Announces 2017 Japanese Scholarship Winner!

Hashi.org is proud to announce the winner of the 11th annual Travel Scholarship to a Japanese citizen!

Our winner has grown up in a hard-working, single parent family in Japan. His mother is  working 3 jobs to support them and help with his studies at Temple University, where he is studying International Economics. He wants to contribute on a world-wide level in international law enforcement, and speaks Japanese, English, and Portuguese.

Our judges found this scholarship decision a difficult one, but the winner’s application proved to be the finest example of the ideals and goals of hashi.org. And so, in 2017, Hashi.org is proud to award a $1,000 travel scholarship to Yudai Harashima! Congratulations!

Hashi.orgは、第11回年次旅行奨学金の優勝者を日本国民に発表することを誇りに思っています！
私たちの優勝者は、日本の勤勉な独身親族の家族で成長しました。 彼の母親は3人の就職活動をして、テンプル大学で国際経済学を勉強しています。 彼は国際法執行機関で世界レベルで貢献したいと考えており、日本語、英語、ポルトガル語を話します。
私たちの裁判官は、この奨学金の決定が難しいと判断しましたが、勝者の申請は、hashi.orgの理想と目標の最も良い例であることが判明しました。 そして、2017年、Hashi.orgは勇大原田に1,000ドルの旅行奨学金を授与したことを誇りに思います！ おめでとう！
