The New York Chapter of RIMS said it has donated $50,000 to the Spencer Educational Foundation to create the New York City-based foundation's first named part-time master's scholarship.

This is the chapter's third named scholarship with the foundation, which will award scholarships worth up to $10,000 annually to support risk management professionals pursuing master's degrees.

“RIMS New York Chapter has been a leader in supporting risk management and insurance education,” said Ron Davis, newly elected chairman of the Spencer Educational Foundation. “This gift continues that leadership and provides risk management professionals with additional financial support to further their education.”
