In order
to actively promote the continued development of the international
business community in Memphis, the Memphis World Trade Club
is working closely with the University of Memphis to provide
the Nell Baugh International
Scholarship Award to an undergraduate international
business student.
Beginning
in the Fall Semester of 2000, this scholarship will cover
one-half of a student’s annual tuition (for a one
year period). Funds for the scholarship are being raised
at our monthly meetings through a raffle (whereby seven
raffle tickets are sold for $5 at our registration desk).
One-half of the money raised at each meeting is reserved
for the scholarship fund, the other half is raffled away
as a cash prize to a luck recipient at the end of the meeting.
