Keeping with our mission to connect, inform and inspire, The Econ Club works with The Seidman College of Business, Grand Valley State University each year to sponsor a high school economic essay contest. This contest helps bring interest to the relevant topics of economics to our community’s high school students as well as invests in our future leaders’ careers.
Through our members’ unwavering support of this worthwhile endeavor, we continue to provide successful programs year after year!
The Grand Rapids Economic Club Charitable Foundation, a non-profit charitable foundation instituted in 1994, was established to finance the awards for the contest winners and support the Scholarship Fund. We feel strongly that this is a program worthy of your support and ask that you make a contribution to the foundation which will assist in the furtherance of this project. Following are the categories for donations to support the contest and the student awards of over $11,000.
