I have been working as a plumbing, heating, and refrigeration apprentice for five years, even traveling three hours back home every weekend to work three days straight while attending school. I work incredibly hard to pay for my schooling in cash, and receiving this scholarship would allow me to reinvest that money back into high-quality tools for my training. This support will help me build the skills and experience I need to achieve my long-term goal of owning my own plumbing, heating, and refrigeration business.
