Isenberg Education Fund Scholarship
The Isenberg Education Fund Scholarship Program’s goal is to provide Nabors employees and their family members with an opportunity to learn, grow and become professionals in their chosen careers. Eugene M. Isenberg, former Chairman & CEO of Nabors, established the Isenberg Education Fund Scholarship Program in 2009 when he began donating all the proceeds of his salary to benefit the educational pursuits of Nabors employees and their immediate family members.
