Why Give Back?

We invite you to explore the values, principles, and priorities that guide our initiatives and learn how together, we can continue to make a lasting impact and grow the leaders of tomorrow. Here are just some of the programs critical to our future.

SASE Pro

The Pro branch of SASE takes the form of a national network of professionals complementing Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) situated in companies across the countries. SASE works to provide challenging developmental programming to empower these professionals to bring increased value to their respective companies as well as to accelerate their own career trajectories. Funding for SASE Pro goes towards generating content.

Collegiate Chapters

Our collegiate chapters and members are the backbone of SASE, striving to provide impactful services for their members ranging from professional networking events, leadership workshops, high school and community service outreach programs, mentorship services, academic help, cultural exposure, to much, much more. Your support empowers both our best and brightest chapters as well as our newest, youngest chapters to push themselves higher than ever before.

Scholarships

SASE has awarded $28,000 in scholarships to 18 incredible students in recent years; over the next 5 years, we hope to provide $50,000 in additional scholarships to deserving students all across the country. Please reach out to admin@saseconnect.org to learn more about setting up a scholarship fund with SASE.

SASE National Conference and STEM Career Fair

The SASE National Conference continues to be the pre-eminent space for AAPI students and professionals to grow professionally and form a nationwide network. If we are to expand our capacity to allow more high schoolers, collegiate students, and professionals to attend in the future while simultaneously increasing the quality of our programming, your support is critical.

Community Service

Every year, SASE collaborates with a local charity to promote service learning and awareness as well as to make a strong, vitalizing impact on the city it hosts its national conference in. When you register for and attend each SASE National Conference, look out for ways to participate in and contribute to our partner local charities.
