Aaron & Co. Millwork Scholarship Program: How to Apply and Win

At Aaron & Co. Millwork, we firmly believe in investing in our community and the next generation of skilled tradesmen. It is our goal to support these students by providing scholarships and mentoring opportunities – anything we can do to help those striving toward their goals. We want to encourage and inspire the young people who are working hard to enter the skilled trades. Many of these students face financial hurdles which might prevent them from attaining a higher level of education – that’s where our scholarship program comes in!

Scholarship Eligibility

If you are a Virginia resident who is in 11-12th grade, or graduated in the past year, and plan to enter the woodworking, carpentry, or construction management field, create a video (under 4 minutes in length) explaining why you want to pursue a career in the skilled trades, and how education will help you achieve these goals.

Video Submission Guidelines

  • Tell us a bit about yourself, the trade you are entering and why you wish to attend the school of your choice
  • Describe what you are passionate about and what you have already done to help uplift society
  • Tell us what you believe our scholarship could help you achieve
  • Bonus points will be awarded if you have a significant project completed or in progress such as something you have built, formal design/planning documents, CAD drawings, a construction plan, or have participated in a Habitat for Humanity, Building Goodness, Eagle Scout project, etc.

Share with us your vision and you may become the lucky winner of a $500 scholarship from Aaron & Co. Millwork to use towards tuition.
