Memorial Scholarship

The Vu Nguyen Memorial Scholarship is one way that the foundation honors the memory of Vu Nguyen, member of the Gang Enforcement Unit of the Sacramento Sheriff’s Department, who died in the line of duty on December 19, 2007. In honor of his memory and valuable contribution to public service, this memorial scholarship is established to support the educational goals and access to post-secondary level academic opportunities for one or more graduating high school or currently enrolled university students.


We believe that helping at least one student every year have access to higher education will both honor our beloved friend and give back to the community through the opportunities afforded the scholarship’s eventual recipient(s). It is our hope that this individual will be inspired to pursue a career serving the community and making the world a better place.
