Trades Make the World Go 'Round
There is a growing need for more workers in the trades, as they are vital fields that are facing shortages.
As fields evolve, becoming a trade specialist requires additional training and schooling, which often comes at a high cost. The expense imposed by college or certification programs can deter students from lower-income families from pursuing their academic and professional goals.
This scholarship aims to support the next generation of trade specialists by reducing the financial barrier posed by education.
Any high school, undergraduate, or trade school student who will be pursuing a trade program, including HVAC, roofing, welding, cosmetology, etc., may apply for this scholarship.
To apply, tell us about yourself and why you’re pursuing a career in the trades.
Please tell us a bit about yourself and why you are choosing the path of the trades.
