The FAPAC Distinguished Public Service Scholarship Endowment Fund, Inc. is a non-profit organization that promotes the recognition of Asian American, Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islanders (AANHPIs). Since 2013, FAPAC has awarded this scholarship to students who exhibit academic excellence, have an interest in public service to become a future federal employee, and have made contributions to foster diversity and inclusion in the AANHPI community. In the interest of encouraging many students to participate, please remember that a student can only be awarded a Distinguished Public Service Scholarship one time so that other students might have an opportunity to be a Scholarship Awardee.
