   "After watching a documentary during the World Cup on the poverty level in one of Ecuador's national players' hometown, I was moved and inspired to act" says Shen.And act he did.The documentary brought a face to the poverty levels in that area of the world, but as a soccer player he felt a connection.As a result he co-founded SweatSpots, an organization that donates soccer equipment to needy places around the world.So far, Shen's group has organized soccer equipment drives, collecting shoes, shin guards, balls and other items."The hope is that by the end of the year, we will have ten boxes full of donated soccer equipment."In addition to the soccer organization, last year Shen organized and implemented a food drive for AIDS patients living in his region, with the cooperation of local food stores such as Whole Foods.He has served as a Special Olympics soccer coach and YMCA basketball coach, and has received the Hard Corps Volunteer Award and Rotary International Youth Leadership Award.
   
   While Shen takes advanced placement courses in a number of subjects, it is his "strong interest" in social studies and geography that have resulted in his greatest honors.He placed in the top five at the AAA Travel Challenge and took honorable mention in a contest sponsored by the UNA-USA West Triangle.He also received the Frederick Douglass and Susan Anthony Award in Humanities and Social Studies.His interest in geography is partly a practical one."I have been quite the world traveler ...
   
   Shen is both an athlete and a musician.As an athlete, he played soccer for his school, contributing to a conference championship, and for the Durham-Chapel Hill Strikers soccer club.He was also a member of the varsity track team.As a musician he has earned the Royal Conservatory of Music Piano Grade 9 with Honors certificate.At his school he founded Quiz Bowl, helped recruit 20 members and currently serves as its captain.He is co-president of his school's Habitat for Humanity chapter, spearheading fundraising drives at college football games and helping to build houses in his community.During summers he volunteers at the Durham VA Hospital.For his services he received an outstanding community service award by the mayor of Durham.This in turn led him to be named to the Student Action Board of Durham, a committee involved in helping the community through volunteering and creating service projects.
   
   Shen Chen lives with his parents and older sister, and particularly thanks his sister for her support through the years.And even though his athleticism is devoted to soccer and track and he lives in North Carolina, he is a devoted fan of the Vancouver Canucks hockey team!
