PPG Provides Scholarships Through Ed. Foundation

March 20, 2017

March 20, 2017—The PPG Foundation recently provided $20,000 in funding for the Collision Repair Education Foundation, which will be awarded to students interested in automotive repair and refinish.

The $5,000 scholarships are awarded each year to full-time students attending post-secondary schools. Scholarship award winners will be announced later this spring.

“Now more than ever do we need to showcase this industry as a viable career option for students,” noted Domenic Brusco, a PPG senior official, “and through these scholarships we can help remove some of the financial barriers they face during their technical education.”

Industry members interested in working with the Collision Repair Education Foundation are encouraged to contact Director of Development Brandon Eckenrode at [email protected].
