  This committee and its members are dedicated to finding and awarding highly motivated graduating high school students in search of higher education.

The committee maintains a vast network of local area high schools and counselors. It is focused on identifying and screening for excellence in leadership, community service, and academics.

To this end, the scholarship application process is thoroughly examined each academic year. The committee’s professionalism and high standards have drawn the attention of sponsors such as Liberty Mutual, Comcast, the Boston Red Sox, and Blue Cross Blue Shield of Massachusetts to the scholarship fund and our students.

Born out of grassroots fundraising efforts by NAAAPBoston members, our scholarship fund began as generous donations from members who shared a commitment to building a strong foundation for developing future leaders.

Today, our donors have grown to include a number of prominent local corporations, academic institutions, philanthropic foundations, and individual contributors.

In 2007, the scholarships awarded totaled $10,000 and were awarded to two deserving scholars in May at a presentation dinner attended by our members and sponsors. We are most proud of the fact that our students have continued on with their education at some of the most prestigious colleges and universities in the world, including Brown University and University of Massachusetts-Amherst.

In 2008, the Scholarship Committee is proud to announce that there will be three $5,000 awards given away this year!

Many, many thanks again to all our supporters over the years!
