About the Morehouse Scholarship

Presented by NYSBA's Research & Education Foundation, the William Morehouse Scholarship was instituted to assist students who are entering a course of study SPECIFIC to the residential construction industry. Its purpose is to assist students in their pursuit of a career in residential construction and to provide employers in New York State with a strong, industry-qualified workforce. CRBRA is proud to partner with NYSBA REF in this important effort to help build a qualified workforce in the Capital Region. As such, CRBRA will match $500/applicant for up to three applicants who are approved for a scholarship by the REF Scholarship Committee.
