Scholarship Aims at Student Entrepreneurs
By: Eve Gumpel | 01/28/2009
Black and Hispanic students can apply for an entrepreneurial scholarship launched this month by Donald A. Coleman, chairman of multicultural marketing communications agency GlobalHue. The Coleman Entrepreneurial Scholarship is designed for students majoring or focusing on entrepreneurship. CES will provide scholarships to college students attending select historically black colleges and universities and institutions serving Hispanics.
Up to 20 scholarships of $5,000 each will be awarded for educational expenses to full-time college juniors or seniors for use in the 2009-10 academic year.
"Private enterprise and entrepreneurship play a critical role in the building of America and our communities," says Kelli Coleman, Coleman's daughter and GlobalHue vice president. "For this reason, my father has established a scholarship to recognize students who have an entrepreneurial spirit and quest for a higher education."
