Rising Star of the Month:
Presenting Sponsor(s):
The Rising Star of the Month is a program from the Carlsbad Chamber of Commerce’s Education Committee. The goal is to champion students that have overcome significant challenges in their life, but have managed to keep, or get back on track with their education. We honor one high school senior each month from each of our area high schools at a breakfast. At the end of the school year, we will give scholarships to at least one student from each of our participating high schools.
Rising Star Breakfasts are open to all educators, family members of students being honored, Chamber Board Members, and event sponsors. All donations to the Rising Star of the Month program are tax deductible as this is officially a program of the Chamber’s “Partner’s in Education” 501c3. If you would like to visit one of our monthly breakfast to see if you would like to be a sponsor, please email: [email protected]
