🎓About Our Scholarship Program:

Each year we aim to award at least one $750 Scholarship to each of the four school districts in the Chamber’s service area – Solanco, Penn Manor, Lampeter-Strasburg, and Pequea Valley.

Our scholarships are different because:

  • They help young entrepreneurs start or grow a business
  • The money awarded can be used to purchase equipment or technology, towards businesses licenses or fees, or courses/workshops
  • Applicants do not need to be pursuing higher education to qualify
  • Applicants can also be homeschooled, cyber or charter – just apply under the district in which you reside

We awarded $2000 to graduating seniors in 2025 and hope to continue growing our scholarship program in the years to come!
