Fair Lawn NJ, Columbia Bank is proud to announce its sponsorship of the 2022 Historically Black College or University (HBCU) Scholarship Ride, an annual 216 mile bike ride from Newark, New Jersey to Howard University in Washington, DC. The program was instituted to raise scholarship monies awarded to high school graduates in Newark who will attend an HBCU, and help bridge the gap between a deserving student’s desire for educational excellence, and the ability to pay for that experience.
