Greene awarded scholarship by Harold & Muriel Berkman Charitable Foundation

Auburn University at Montgomery/Montgomery, Ala. (Feb. 22, 2018) — Chauncey Greene, a senior majoring in Accounting, was recently named a scholarship recipient by the Harold & Muriel Berkman Charitable Foundation.

“I would first like to say that I am very thankful for the members and supporters of the Harold & Muriel Berkman Charitable Foundation for selecting me out of hundreds of applicants to receive such an honor,” said Greene. “Receiving this scholarship has been a major motivator and has solidified my dedication and commitment to furthering my education, and encouraging others to do the same.”

Greene, a native of Montezuma, Georgia, is currently working toward his Bachelor of Science in Accounting. “I hope to not only graduate and successfully enter the career field, but also use my experience both in the military and through my time at university to inspire and encourage others from small towns like myself to pursue more,” said Greene.

The foundation received more than 800 applications and awarded scholarships based on two criteria categories. The first category awarded U.S. Veterans with a special emphasis on candidates holding a Combat Infantryman Badge, those receiving a serious would in combat, or those in branches other than the army recognized for combat action. The second category recognized candidates with an enthusiasm for advancing the discipline of marketing through pursuit of a degree in marketing or in business with an emphasis on marketing-related pursuits.
