About
Chartered in 1982 to "promote and encourage advancements in the fields of music, art, literature, science, and those individuals involved in said fields," the BWCC Foundation has every year since produced a variety of scholarships for deserving high school students, awarding up to 18 scholarships each year to students on their way to schools well-known locally and statewide--Capitol College, Prince George´s and Anne Arundel Community Colleges, the University of Maryland, and St. Mary´s College--as well as to such esteemed out-of-state institutions as Mercer University, Miami University of Ohio, and Yale University. The BWCC Foundation was renamed the Central Maryland Chamber Educational Foundation after the Baltimore Washington Corridor Chamber (BWCC) merged with the West County Chamber in 2017. 
The Foundation´s core scholarship program consists of two $1,500 awards and two $1,000 rotated annually to eight Baltimore/Washington Corridor high schools (Hammond and Reservoir High Schools in Howard County; High Point, Laurel, and Pallotti High Schools in Prince George´s County; Meade Senior High in Anne Arundel County; and Paint Branch and Springbrook High Schools in Montgomery County).  Each winter, the Foundation notifies the principal of the recipient school and asks that the school´s faculty select the student it feels is most worthy and deserving of the award.  After the appropriate awards ceremony, the check is drawn to the institution selected by the student.
