June, 01 2019

Hamilton Relay, Telecommunications Relay and Captioned Telephone Service provider for the state of New Mexico, has awarded a $500 college scholarship to Nthabeleng MacDonald, a student of New Mexico School for the Deaf from Albuquerque, New Mexico.

The Hamilton Relay Scholarship opportunity is available to high school seniors who are deaf, hard of hearing, deaf-blind or have difficulty speaking. A recipient is selected within each of the states where Hamilton is the contracted service provider and is one of several ways the company gives back to the communities it serves. 

“Hamilton takes pride in recognizing outstanding leadership and promoting education,” said Thomas Sena, New Mexico Outreach Coordinator. “We are excited to have the opportunity to contribute to furthering Nthabeleng's education and wish her success in reaching her personal and professional goals.”

Nthabeleng was awarded the $500 Hamilton Relay Scholarship after completing the application process, including writing an essay under the topic of communication technology. She plans to attend Gallaudet University this fall to study Psychology.
