Charles Reid Imperial Scholarship Fund

This fund will be used to create a scholarship that seeks to support students who are planning to dedicate their careers to the skilled trades in order to make a difference. Hands-on trade skills are crucial to the growth and development of our communities, yet these careers are often overlooked in favor of traditional four-year college degrees. Many students are eager to gain practical skills, succeed in their chosen trades, and create bright futures without the need for a four-year institution, but a lack of encouragement can hamper their passion. While attending a university can be the right path for many students, the world needs trained trades professionals to create progress in their communities.
