We have a quick reminder that we are still accepting applications for the Herb Crosby Memorial Scholarship through next Friday!

Mr. Herb Crosby was a dedicated, educated leader who was committed to educating and providing leadership within the communities he served. He consistently demonstrated this commitment by willingly assisting anyone interested in enhancing their learning. The Chamber is continuing his legacy by offering scholarships in his name for New Mexico Black High School Seniors. We are offering two types of scholarships; one for those interested in pursuing a trade, certificate, or degree program within New Mexico or for attendance at a Historically Black Colleges and University (HBCU).
