Scholars
GM Award

This event is one of our premier events and it took place last year on the beautiful Infinity Yacht Thursday, August 10, 2021. We came out to honor our 2020 – 2021 scholars.

 We awarded $77,500 in scholarships in 2020-2021 to Detroit Metropolitan African American High School Seniors pursuing careers in the automotive industry and other areas.

Our title sponsor for this event was General Motors. Cheryl Greer, Supplier Diversity Manager, GM Supplier Engagement received the appreciation award on behalf of General Motors.

On behalf of the NABS Scholarship Fund Board we would like to also say thank you to our 2020 and 2021 Sponsors: Detroit Chassis, LLC, FCA Group (now Stellantis), DTE Foundation, JMA Global, Bridgewater Interiors, Diversified Chemical Technologies, Inc., John James Foundation, TAG Holdings, LLC, Comerica Bank, Flex-N-Gate and many others. Without your support many of our students would not have the opportunity to attend the Universities of their choice; and for that we say Thank You!!!

Proceeds from this year's Celebration will fund scholarships and provide mentoring for our outstanding seniors who will pursue careers related to the automotive, financial and tech Industry.
