"As a first-generation immigrant, financial security has always been at the forefront of my mind. Because of The Asper Foundation’s generosity, I can focus on my studies more without being financially stressed. Their kindness has allowed me to pursue my studies and extracurriculars that I otherwise would not have been able to, because of my financial circumstances. They have helped opened more doors of opportunities for me than I could ever do on my own."
