Annual Internship Incentive Awards

Virginia Asian Foundation offers annual Internship incentive awards each academic year to the most deserving volunteer interns. These are need-based stipends offered to help qualified students the opportunity to intern at VACC. Interns must spend a minimum of 12 weeks to be eligible for stipend awards which help them off-set the cost of schoolbooks.
