NH Potential Meets Opportunity
Greater Manchester Black Scholarship Foundation is committed to the future of our youth by awarding scholarships to first time college entrants who may be underprivileged yet worthy New Hampshire students, regardless of race, creed, color or national origin.
The Greater Manchester Black Scholarship Foundation (GMBSF) is the realization of a dream, a father’s dream that took form in 1974, when its founder Lionel W Johnson and a group of people who shared that dream officially organized.
The first elected officers were: Frank Bishop Jr, Athenia Jones, Lionel W Johnson, and Vanessa L.M. Johnson. Other trustees were Inez Bishop, Adelaide Dodge, Hilda Fleisher Peter Flood, George Hause, Kevin McAdams, Henry McLaughlin, James Reynolds, Madeline Sachez, Edward Shapiro, Rabbi Arthur Starr, and Mervin Weston.
In addition, the Freeland Family was instrumental in GMBSF Fund Development.
