Garden City, New York --- During the past several years, Tai Wang,co-principal and co-founder of W.A.C. Lighting, has helped sponsor the Long Island City, NY-based LaGuardia Community College Foundation.
Under Mrs. Wang's guidance, W.A.C. Lighting has presented extremely generous gifts to support student scholarships and cultivate others to do the same. She has enhanced the Foundation's public image by clearly articulating its mission, accomplishments and goals to the public, as well as garnering support from important members of the media in the Asian-American community.
Ms. Wang has been a dedicated, committed member of the Board of Directors of the LaGuardia Community College Foundation since September 2003. Mrs. Wang and the W.A.C. Lighting family fully supports the Foundation, which provides financial assistance for scholarships, endowed chairs, equipment, and capital projects that are not covered by tuition and New York City and State financing.
"Tai's spirit is both an inspiration to all of our students, and a role model to which students can aspire", explained Dr. Gail O. Mellow, President of LaGuardia Community College. "Her commitment to education is outstanding. With students from over 160 different countries, many LaGuardia students worry if they can achieve their dreams as immigrants to this country. Tai's accomplishments implicitly say 'yes.' Her energy is tireless and only matched by her boundless intelligence."
