Hispano Chamber Supports Students through College Scholarships

Posted on April 29, 2013 by Eldelisa Nava

The Hispano Chamber of Commerce de Las Cruces Education Committee, in keeping with its tradition in serving the community, will offer a new college scholarship program.

These scholarships are for graduating seniors from the high schools serving the Doña Ana County who are seeking a college degree at either DACC or NMSU. Students must earn their high school diploma no earlier than May 2013.

Scholarship recipients are selected on a number of criteria:
• Academic record
• Potential to succeed
• Leadership
• Participation in community activities
• Honors
• Work experience

Dr. Georgia Lane, Education Committee Chair, is very excited about this new initiative. “It is our desire to help ensure the success of the students in our community,” said Dr. Lane. “Their success depends on the commitment of their parents, teachers, administrators and the community. It takes a village.”

For more information on how to apply for this scholarship, contact your high school counselor or The Hispano Chamber at 524-8900. The deadline to apply is April 30, 2013.
