The Sauk Valley Area Chamber of Commerce has awarded $32,750 in scholarships to local students for the 2024-25 school year.
The chamber raises funds and awards scholarships to local students pursuing higher education every year. Committees and volunteers organize fundraising efforts, collect scholarship applications, evaluate applications and award funds.
“We are so appreciative of our members’ support to provide these scholarships.  Collaborating with the chamber, whether financially, as a committee member or a volunteer goes a long way in supporting our area students in their future,” said Pam Fluck, SVACC Board President. “A future we hope brings them back to the Sauk Valley area.”
The Agribusiness Committee awarded scholarships totaling $18,750 to all 15 applicants for the upcoming school year. Four manufacturing scholarships were awarded, totaling $6,000. The Farnham Business Scholarship was awarded to four students, totaling $4,000. The SVACC Hispanic Business Leaders Committee awarded four scholarships, totaling $4,000.
“It is due to the engagement and commitment of our members in our Chamber events and activities that allow us to make workforce development initiatives a priority,” said Kris Noble, Executive Director.
