Annual Scholarships for High School Seniors

The GMSVCC raises funds throughout the year with matching funds offered from our sponsor, Amherst Label. We’ve averaged $3,000 per student award each year; one award for a student going into a traditional college program; one award going to a student going into a trade school.

Weekly Referral Group

This is a low-cost weekly opportunity for Chamber members to develop deeper relationships with other business owners to learn more about each other’s businesses and provide referrals to each other; it is more formal and requires greater commitment than most other networking gatherings.
