The Greater Augusta Regional Chamber of Commerce Foundation is a 501(c)(3) support organization of the Chamber that serves Staunton, Waynesboro and Augusta County with a mission focused on initiatives in the areas of education, workforce development, quality of life and community development.
The Chamber Scholarship Program is intended to provide monetary assistance to students as they enter their career development journey whether that be a certification program or a four-year degree.
High School seniors have many options to continue their education once they graduate, and the Greater Augusta Regional Chamber of Commerce Foundation has the opportunity to help! Over the last 12 years, the Chamber Foundation, through the generous contributions of member businesses and community leaders, has awarded over $225,000 in scholarships to our local students to help them achieve the first step on their career path.

Students must be enrolled as a senior at a public or private school located in Augusta County, the City of Staunton, or the City of Waynesboro, or be homeschooled in one of those localities.
