SACRAMENTO, Calif. — The EGIA Foundation announced its fifth annual class of HVAC HERO Scholarship recipients — a group of dedicated students pursuing education to prepare themselves for career paths in HVAC. Each one exemplifies the mission of the EGIA Foundation, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to building a bigger, brighter future workforce for the home services trades.
Nineteen students are receiving $2,500 apiece toward tuition as they pursue technical HVAC degrees or certificates from a variety of trade schools, colleges, and other technical training programs as part of the EGIA Foundation’s HVAC HERO Scholarship Program. Over the last five years, the HERO Program has distributed over $225,000 to 91 HVAC students, helping to increase the pipeline of talented workers between post-high school training programs and contractors actively seeking new hires.
