Advancing diversity in advertising & public relations

The Crosby Marketing Scholars Program is a key component of our overall Diversity, Equity and Inclusion efforts. It creates greater opportunities for underrepresented students to pursue degrees and future careers in the advertising and public relations field.

This $100,000 scholarship program was created in partnership with Anne Arundel Community College (AACC), one of the nation’s premier institutions of its kind.

Each year, four students receive a two-year scholarship that includes:

financial support

Scholarships are available for studies related to Marketing, Public Relations, Graphic Design, Multimedia/Video Production and Web Design.

career guidance

Each student also receives ongoing guidance from AACC professors and is paired with a Crosby staff member who provides mentoring and career advice.

summer internship

At the end of a student’s two-year participation in the program, Crosby offers them a summer internship to gain added experience.

A powerful partnership

“Our industry has struggled to increase diversity, so we’re taking tangible action to help bring more underrepresented professionals into our field,” said Raymond Crosby, Crosby’s President & CEO. “We hope to inspire new talent and important voices who reflect the growing diversity of our country and our community.”

“We are pleased to collaborate with Crosby Marketing to prepare more professionals for success in these fields,” said Dawn Lindsay, AACC President. “At AACC, we serve an increasingly diverse range of students that this scholarship program will help support.”
