Minority Women in LAS Scholarship
Amabel was an incredible woman who overcame many obstacles to find success and fulfillment.
Amabel was born in Cameroon and moved to the United States after completing high school. She attended Bunker Hill Community College and thrived there, participating in many different activities on campus and building her own community. She was able to achieve her dream of becoming a successful attorney and made a huge impact on the many lives around her in the short time she had.
This scholarship seeks to honor Amabel by supporting students from immigrant backgrounds who have conquered challenges to get to where they are today.
Any African American female undergraduate, trade school or graduate student who is an immigrant or the child of immigrants may apply for this scholarship if she is pursuing law, science, or arts with at least a 3.0 GPA.
