NEC Member Rockland Trust recently announced the launch of its 2020 Rockland Trust Scholarship Program for High School students entering their first year of college in fall 2020.

The bank will be offering 11 scholarships, of $2,500 each, to students based on academic accomplishment and community service. Students attending high school in Rockland Trust’s servicing areas (including Boston, South Shore, South Coast, Metro North, Metro West, Cape Cod and the Islands) will be eligible for the scholarship.
