EL DORADO HILLS CHAMBER OF COMMERCE AWARDS SCHOLARSHIPS

(El Dorado Hills, CA) – The El Dorado Hills Chamber of Commerce is proud to award

four scholarships of $750 each to local graduates, who plan to continue their education

at a university, college, or technical school. This year the Chamber received 18

impressive applications from highly qualified students. The Chamber is pleased to

announce that two scholarships are funded by Pacific Interstate Insurance Brokers and

Joe Harn, El Dorado County Auditor-Controller. Our other 2 scholarships were funded

from the proceeds from our first Virtual Silent Auction. The Chamber looks forward to

growing this sponsorship program in the future.

The scholarships are judged by a committee of five business leaders from our

community. It was a difficult task, as all of the applicants were most deserving. The

point system is based on the following criteria: 50% community service, 15% work

experience, 15% extracurricular activities, 10% scholastic GPA, and 10% financial

need. The El Dorado Hills Chamber of Commerce congratulates the following

scholarship recipients for 2021, and wishes them continued success in their future

endeavors: Amanda Immer, Logan Barth, Rithvik Murali, and Victoria Kolanski, all from

Oak Ridge High School.

“It is such an honor to be able to bring a little support to these four El Dorado Hills

students. We understand that they are our future, and we want to help them succeed

and continue their education. Our hope is that after graduation they will move back to El

Dorado Hills to live and hopefully are lucky enough to work here too,” said Debbie

Manning, El Dorado Hills Chamber of Commerce President & CEO. Donations to the El

Dorado Hills Chamber of Commerce Scholarship Fund for the Class of 2022 can be
