2022 City of Cambridge Scholarship Recipients Honored

The City of Cambridge honored the recipients of the 2022 City of Cambridge Scholarship during a special ceremony on June 6, 2022.

This year, the city awarded 81 scholarships of $3,000 each for a total $243,000 to Cambridge high school seniors and others pursuing higher education. Since the program’s inception in 1993, the city has awarded 1,269 scholarships totaling over $3.1 million.

"I know how expensive higher education has become, and I hope that today’s scholarship will make a difference," said Cambridge City Manager Louis A. DePasquale. "I am proud that so many residents and businesses make generous contributions to our Scholarship fund. It speaks volumes about our community, and these donations make this program possible. When you complete your higher education, I hope you will seriously consider returning to Cambridge to work for one of the amazing companies located here…or better yet, you will consider working for the City of Cambridge or the Cambridge Public Schools."
