Scholarship

Plumbing Industry Scholarship

4 scholarships will be awarded annually

Today many of our most promising young people cannot attend college due to financial barriers.  Developing the next generation of leaders will require supporting qualified students who are driven to learn yet many not have the resources to continue their studies.  Therefore, the board of directors of the Plumbing Council of Chicagoland had decided to sponsor four $2,500 scholarship annually.  These scholarships will be awarded to a Chicago Journeymen Plumbers' Union Local 130, U.A. immediate family member (including if member is a legal guardian of the applicant).  Members must be in continuous good standing membership and must work for a company under contract with Local 130.  Family members of the employees of the Plumbing Council, Plumbing Contractors Association or the Chicago Journeymen Plumbers' Union Local 130, U.A. and Plumbing Council Contractors are eligible.

Awards will be based on academic achievement, potential, character, leadership, social awareness and career goal.  An independent expert from Loyola University Scholarship Program will review all applicants and decide the final recipients.  This program includes high school graduates and students pursing an undergraduate degree currently attending an accredited college or university.  All applicants will be notified and the scholarships winners will be featured in the Plumbers Quarterly Newsletter.
