Chu's Academy
​Scholarship Fund

Chu's Academy of Martial Arts has been teaching children courage and concentration since 1982. Due to Covid-19, several of our students are not able to continue their martial arts instruction due to family financial constraints. Our scholarship fund makes it possible for them to continue to train and practice to benefit their growth and development. Our programs encourage confidence, self-control, and provide physical conditioning.
​We are a proud Bronze Sponsor of Long Hill Education Foundation (LHEF), which champions academic excellence, program enrichment, and innovative learning by raising funds for mini-grants, educational resources, and unique programs that extend beyond the traditional school budget. Our efforts ensure students have access to enriching opportunities that enhance their educational experience.
Chu's Academy of Martial Arts has served the local community since 1982 (previously as Soo Bahk Do Karate of Gillette) and is dedicated to developing key concepts of the art, thereby improving basic desirable human attributes such as courage, concentration and endurance.
