The Thunderbird School of Global Management has long been acknowledged as one of the top schools in the field of global business. Global Sources supports this world-renowned management school through several initiatives including funding the institution's state-of-the-art library, the Merle A. Hinrichs International Business Information Centre (IBIC). More than a traditional library, the IBIC provides resources on-site and electronically from other libraries around the world. Global Sources also supports several Thunderbird scholarship programs including the Asian Students Award offered in conjunction with the Kearny Alliance and Asian Thunderbird alumni chapters. In addition, the company offers a scholarship open to all Global Sources team members with more than five years experience with the company. This scholarship program is open to children of Global Sources team members as well.           Thunderbird Assistance Fund for Asian Students (TAFAS) Money for the TAFAS award is raised through Thunderbird alumni chapters in Hong Kong, Shanghai and Beijing. Global Sources has actively supported this program. So far there have been two recipients of the TAFAS support. Below are two recipients who participated in our program: Carmen Choy became the first graduate of the TAFAS program. She graduated in May 2007.     Yankee Shen is currently studying in Glendale, Arizona, with the TAFAS support.   For more information regarding TAFAS, please contact Alex Boome at aboome@globalsources.com .
