Annie Wang Scholarship

Annie Wang Memorial Scholarships

A talented and hardworking flautist, Annie Wang brought joy with her everywhere. After joining the Del Norte Music Program in 2012, Annie demonstrated her dedication to the organization through the enthusiasm she brought to every rehearsal, performance, and event.

During her Junior and Senior Year, Annie became a marching band section leader. Her uplifting nature, passion for music, and avid desire to help others made her the embodiment of an effective leader. Annie’s exceptional capacity to empathize with others fostered an inclusive atmosphere, and this compassionate leadership and unwavering authenticity inspired many to follow in her footsteps for years to come.

Annie had a deep love of music and dedicated her high school years to the Del Norte Music Program. We hope these awards can memorialize her legacy and can continue to recognize other students who hold these exceptional abilities.

Are you OK?

Mental health conditions are common among teens and young adults. 50% of all lifetime mental illnesses develop by age 14 and 75% develop by age 24.

Are you suffering from depression or severe anxiety?

A mental health condition isn't your fault or your family's fault — these conditions develop for complicated reasons that researchers are only just starting to understand. But we do know a lot about how you can live well with a mental health condition. You have the power to improve your mental health. And it starts with one conversation.

Do you think a friend is suffering from depression or severe anxiety?

One of the most important ways to be a good friend is to help your friends when you notice something is wrong. This includes helping them get the support they need and deserve if they are experiencing a mental health condition. This might seem like a big task, but it doesn’t have to be. And it starts with one conversation.
