Tiffany Wang is a gifted musician, who has a passion for music and the arts. When Tiffany was in high school, she performed at various functions where she was paid or received gratuities. One such event was the local Farmer's Market. Tiffany felt privileged that her parents could afford to send her to summer music camps, and she sponsors this scholarship with the monies that she earned from her performances to help students that are less fortunate. This scholarship helps students with their tuition fees for summer camps in the fine arts and performing arts.
