Each spring, a number of the region\u2019s most outstanding high school seniors are recognized with scholarships from the Chamber Foundation of the North Central Massachusetts Chamber of Commerce.\u00a0 A total of $52,000 in scholarships were awarded this year. \u00a0These awards were either endowed or funded by companies and individuals. \u00a0The Scholarship Committee selected scholarship recipients from among college-bound seniors in the Chamber\u2019s service area. \u00a0The sole basis for selection was merit – in all aspects of students\u2019 endeavors, from academics and sports to volunteer work and employment.<\/p>\n
Since the establishment of its scholarship program, the North Central Massachusetts Chamber Foundation has awarded over a million dollars in scholarships to over 600 students. \u00a0Many of these awards are made possible through contributions from members of the North Central Massachusetts Chamber of Commerce. \u00a0Scholarships endowed through the Chamber Foundation are often named in honor of prominent members of the North Central Massachusetts business community whose philanthropy and commitment to the community have helped shape North Central Massachusetts. \u00a0The Chamber wishes to thank TD Bank and Unitil for their sponsorship of this year\u2019s scholarship program, as well as the many Chamber members who contributed towards the scholarships.<\/p>\n
