ROCHESTER - The Greater Rochester Chamber of Commerce announced recently it will be $500 scholarship(s) to eligible students graduating from high school.

Students must be graduating seniors in high school who are either employed by or have a parent employed by a company that is a member of the Greater Rochester Chamber of Commerce.

The recipient will be selected in April and be awarded in June at their school's scholarship ceremony/graduation. The scholarship awarded will be payable to the institution they are attending in their second year of attending a full-time college, university or technical school.
