Please come show your appreciation for their hard work and dedication!

Their retirement date is set to begin July 1st!

Its the time of year when students and schools start REALLY thinking about paying tuition for college. Scholarships can be found for High School students at other unions (if a significant other is a Member of one of those), at the student’s or parents place of work, the High School counselor,  your library’s reference section, foundations, religious or community organizations, local businesses or civic groups, organizations (including professional associations) related to the field of interest. A College itself can grant them, but filling out a Federal Student Aid form is usually required.

Below are scholarships that can be found associated with the IAM and other Unions.
