Music Scholarships For Students
The Associated Male Choruses of America, Inc. (AMCA) was established in 1924 to promote interest in, the performance of, and appreciation of male chorus music.
The AMCA Scholarship Fund is one of the public service functions of the AMCA. It was instituted to assist promising students of music at the college level and is open to all students meeting the requirements.
The AMCA Scholarship Fund was established (1973) in memory of AMCA Executive Secretary (1945-1965) Guy Stoppert. After accumulation of the necessary funds, the first scholarship awards were made for school year 1980-1981. Funds are accumulated through special gifts to the fund and through general collections at Big Sings from the men of AMCA.
