AMCHAM Thailand Foundation Scholarship Alumni: Patchimaporn (Day) Chanchon

Meet Patchimaporn (Day) Chanchon, a recipient of the AMCHAM Thailand Foundation's Student Scholarship program, which provides scholarships for exceptional underserved students.

My journey unexpectedly began when my professor picked out several posters from his desk and asked me to look at them. Curiosity made me scan them quickly and I found an interesting flyer – the AMCHAM scholarship. It is unusual for the Math Department to have a scholarship with English as well as a social activity requirement. I kept thinking whether I should apply for the scholarship, and the answer was ‘why not?’. Who could imagine that I would have experienced such a wonderful opportunity, met new friends that I had a strong connection with, met with Sheree, Pat, Graffy, Jan, and other AMCHAM staff members taking care of us and finally, met with fantastic people from all over the country who shared their thoughts, passions, and gave me pieces of advice in many aspects of my life. I would not be able to do all of these without you, AMCHAM. I deeply appreciate the opportunity. The scholarship not only provides me with financial assistance but also encourages me to be a better person, a great leader, and an adaptive future generation. I hope we can pass this opportunity to many more people who need it and continue doing this for as long as we can.
