Here at OTI it has become the season of scholarships! March is a hot month for money supporting women in the trades! While we were not directly invited for this scholarship opportunity, thanks to our ruthless, internet-scouring staff member Leigh McIlvaine, we are able to pass the opportunity along to you!
The Dwyer Group is supporting women in the trades by awarding six $1,500 scholarships each semester. They intend for these scholarships to be used by tradeswomen to pay tuition, books, travel and/or fees. While The Dwyer Group is based in Texas, they are opening their scholarships to tradeswomen across the US and Canada. However, they do limit scholarships to seven trade specialties:
- HVAC
- Plumbing
- Electrical Repair
- Glass Repair and Replacement
- Appliance Repair
- Restoration
- Landscaping
The first deadline is March 31st and the second is September 30. So, go forth and apply!
You will need to complete an application, two 500 word essays, and get a reference. Good luck!
