Attentions before Submitting Proposals

Our foundation shares the same circumstances with other charity foundations which can only subsidize few projects in coordination with its objectives. Generally speaking, we merely consider the proposals and schemes in coordination with our public funding strategies and in accordance with the guidance of the financial aid application of AMS.
