Bradford White Corp. recently announced the recipients of its 2003 scholarship award funds during the "Celebration of Youth" opening session of the Plumbing-Heating-Cooling Contractors-National Association's (PHCC's) annual convention in Las Vegas.

Ted Sikorski, vice president of marketing of Bradford White, presented $3,500 in industry scholarships to the winners. The winners, selected by the PHCC National Auxiliary scholarship committee, will use the funds to further their education in plumbing-heating-cooling (p-h-c)-related fields.

Second place winner was Tom McGuine, Wales, Wis., a journeyman plumber with the Wisconsin Chapter of the Associated Builders and Contractors.

Bradford White sponsors scholarship awards to students who are enrolled in a plumbing-heating-cooling (p-h-c)-related major at an accredited college or university or who are presently working full-time in an approved plumbing or HVAC apprenticeship program for a licensed plumber or HVAC contractor who is a PHCC member.

Sikorski also presented two checks during opening ceremonies:

  • $7,500 to PHCC for scholarships to be awarded to students enrolled in a PHCC apprenticeship program; and

  • $7,500 to the PHCC National Auxiliary for the college scholarship fund.
