Las Vegas Asian Chamber of Commerce once again is offering an academic scholarship to students of Asian descent. In the past, the Asian Chamber offered ten scholarships for $2,000 each to deserving graduating Asian high school students. The deadline to apply is March 7, 2025.

A growing group of Indian-American students have been honored with the Chamber’s scholarship for the past couple of years. Four Indian-American students in 2024 were proud recipients of the scholarship.

The Chamber is interested in the character that exists deep inside each student, and the best way to get a glimpse of this character is to see their willingness to help others.
