Providing educational opportunities for Madison County residents

Recognizing that our young people are the county’s most important investment, the Chamber established the Madison County Chamber of Commerce Education Scholarship Endowment with the Madison County Community Foundation (an affiliate of the North Carolina Community Foundation) in 2001. The Endowment Fund supports Madison County students in their pursuit of a higher education by providing an annual scholarship award to a worthy Madison County student.

Donate to the Scholarship Fund

Thanks to good investing on the part of the Foundation, and yearly contributions to the fund, the endowment was valued at $18,466.10 in 2019. The Chamber encourages the community to support the Scholarship Endowment to reach and exceed the goal of $40,000. Contributions are tax-deductible.

The Chamber invites citizens of Madison County to join our business community in supporting this effort to improve educational opportunities for our youth. Anyone can donate to this fund by sending a check to the Madison County Chamber of Commerce (with Scholarship Fund in the “For” line) at PO Box 1085, Mars Hill, NC 28754.
