Volunteering & the Scholarship Award

The Granite Region is an active organization seeking to involve members and people interested in joining the Region to participate in activities that promote our hobby. As such, we develop projects that interact with the community. One effort is the scholarship venture described below.

Scholarship award

At the December 2008 membership meeting, the members voted to award an annual scholarship in the amount of $1,000 to a graduating high school senior planning to pursue higher education in the automotive field.  This career could be as a restorer, mechanic, technician, designer, engineer, automotive journalist, or other related occupation.

Since our annual financial situation fluctuates, it will be a challenge to assure this award will be adequately funded each year. The Club agreed that a separate fund should be established to which members donate. Due to our current tax status, donations would not qualify as tax deductible contributions; however, members are encouraged to make whatever donation possible, knowing that it will go to a  good cause.

We hope all members will at least make a donation when renewing their membership from now on. A contribution of $20/membership would go a long way toward achieving this goal. For more information, please contact Ken Sommers at MHUPP28@COMCAST.NET.

Applications are due April 12, 2010 and the first award will be made in June, 2010.
