Senator John Chafee Memorial Scholarship Program

The Senator John H. Chafee Scholarship Program is one of CONECT's most impactful initiatives, supporting the next generation of business, logistics, transportation, and supply chain professionals. This fall, CONECT will award approximately six scholarships to outstanding students pursuing careers in our industry. Made possible through the support of key donators, including Gemini Shippers Association, Dimerco Express Group, A.N. Deringer, Inc., Janel Group, and the Boston Foreign Commerce Club and generous contributions from members, the program continues to grow each year.

As we prepare for the Northeast Trade & Transportation Conference on October 21-23 in Newport, RI, we invite donations of gift baskets, gift cards, experiences, merchandise, services, and auction items to support our scholarship fundraiser. Every contribution, large or small, helps create opportunities for deserving students and strengthens the future of our industry.

Please contact Jack Bender or the CONECT office.

Who can apply to the Scholarship Program:
Family, friends, and colleagues of current CONECT Members in good standing and CONECT Staff. If you are unsure of your membership status, please contact S usan Beland
