Chamber accepting scholarship applications

The St. Joseph Chamber of Commerce scholarship applications are due March 31, 2019. 
Eligible applicants must be a senior at SJO and live in the SJO high school district. 

The Chamber scholarship committee evaluates all applications based on GPA, extracurricular activities, community activities and an essay that contains a personal statement, short term goals, and long term goals. 

The chamber believes that it is important for the students to be active not only in school but in the community as well; giving back to the community is an important part of being a successful business. 

Applications are available through the SJO guidance office, the St. Joseph Township – Swearingen Memorial Library or online at the chamber web site: www.stjoechamber.org under sponsored activities. 

Completed applications can be mailed to the Chamber at: Chamber Scholarship Application, PO Box 816, St. Joseph, IL 61873 or dropped off at the St. Joseph Township-Swearingen Memorial Library.
