The Phi Tang Foundation was established in 2019 to honor the life and legacy of Phi Tang, a selfless, hardworking, and exceptionally gifted young man whose impact continues to resonate within his community. Phi was a proud Academy Park High School alumnus and a standout student-athlete, excelling as both a tennis and wrestling star while maintaining the highest GPA among student-athletes. He embodied balance, discipline, and determination-qualities that defined him both on and off the field.

Phi’s passions extended far beyond academics and athletics. He held deep interests in engineering, technology, and innovation, with a particular love for coding, robotics, and gaming. He was equally drawn to the arts, with an appreciation for opera and fine arts in music, reflecting his curiosity, creativity, and multidimensional character. Guided by strong values in social and environmental advocacy, Phi consistently demonstrated compassion and a desire to contribute meaningfully to the world around him.

In his honor, The Phi Tang Foundation proudly funds the Phi Tang Award, an annual scholarship presented at Academy Park High School to a graduating student-athlete who achieves the highest GPA. This award reflects Phi’s commitment to excellence, perseverance, and lifelong learning, while encouraging students to pursue success with integrity and balance.

In addition to educational support, The Phi Tang Foundation is committed to strengthening communities through local outreach and advocacy. Our work includes mental health awareness initiatives, addressing food insecurity through homeless feeding efforts and grocery support programs, and collaborating with community partners to uplift individuals and families in need.

Through scholarship, service, and advocacy, The Phi Tang Foundation transforms remembrance into action—honoring Phi Tang’s life by empowering future generations, supporting community well-being, and fostering a legacy rooted in compassion, excellence, and purpose.
