The Southern Lancaster County Chamber of Commerce has awarded $500 scholarships to graduating seniors in Lampeter-Strasburg, Solanco and Penn Manor school districts. The scholarships are awarded annually to students in these districts who will pursue a career in business through postsecondary education or by starting a business of their own. The 2021 recipients are Jack Swarr from Lampeter-Strasburg, Faith Redcay from Solanco and Daniel Bowman from Penn Manor.
The Chamber obtains funding for the scholarships through its annual shredding event. Local residents, businesses and organizations are invited to bring their sensitive and confidential paper-based materials for shredding to the event. All shredded material is recycled. Donations are encouraged and are used to fund the annual college scholarships. The next shredding event is being planned for the fall.
