Immaculata University student and Pottstown native Hannah Clark, Class of 2024, is the recipient of a scholarship from the Business, Fashion, and Leadership Department’s Business Advisory Board. The scholarship provides $2,000 each year until graduation. She is majoring in business management with a minor in pre-law.

Clark is passionate about environmental issues and interested in adding a second minor in biology. As an active member of the business club and the environmental club at Immaculata, Clark’s ultimate goal would be to combine her interest to create a business to aid in the collection of the five trillion tons of microplastic from the ocean and transform it into valuable, necessary products for consumer use.

Her academic experience, along with her extracurricular activities, provides a foundation to help her achieve her noble pursuits.

“The Business Advisory Board is proud of our latest scholarship recipient, Hannah Clark,” said Gwen Menton Cantarera, chair of the scholarship committee. “Hannah is an exemplary student at Immaculata. She impressed the interviewing committee with her drive, passion, and determination to be a positive change-maker. She is a standout young talent deserving of our merit-based scholarship.”

The Business Advisory Board advises the Business, Fashion, and Leadership Department by helping support its mission and continuously improving the quality of education provided to Immaculata’s students. To reach these goals, each scholarship recipient is required to participate in the Advisory Board’s mentoring program. This outreach connects students with a business mentor in the local community to bridge the gap between the classroom and workplace.
