Annual Business Campaign
The Annual Business Campaign (ABC) is all about helping students from our own back yard.
Local businesses are asked to contribute an annual gift to support scholarship aid for Union Students from the Capital Region (Albany, Columbia, Montgomery, Rensselaer, Saratoga, Schoharie and Schenectady Counties) who are eligible for financial aid. The program is directed by an Executive Committee.
By achieving the campaign goals of $125,000 this year, we can ensure greater opportunities for local students that would not otherwise be possible.

“The ABC scholarship provides great opportunities to students by introducing these students to companies that they may not know about. This scholarship not only helped me while in school, but after graduation I will begin work at KAPL which provided my scholarship support for the past three years. I had originally heard about the company via this scholarship. Union has provided me with a great education, as well as many other opportunities."
