Montgomery College Scholarship

The Chamber is proud of its Montgomery College Scholarship Program. Our local economy relies on an educated workforce.

Why Do We Contribute?

If we want to see a thriving, growing economy, we need an educated, skilled workforce. We need students ready to come into the workforce and make a contribution to our economy and to our community.

Want to Invest in the Future of Tomorrow? Here’s How You Can Help.

The GGCC scholarship committee is chaired by GGCC Past Board Chair & Hughes Network Systems Vice President Jim Muir. Muir manages donations yearly from Chamber Members and GGCC Past Chairs who step up every year and make individual and in some cases personal donations.
