The Hourglass Foundation is on a mission is to empower first-generation, and diversely underrepresented students to achieve a life of financial stability and independence through scholarship opportunities that support educational pursuits in the skilled trades. Specifically, trade school or community college programs with a focus on Auto Tech, HVAC, Electrical, Plumbing, Construction, or similar.

By investing in educating the next generation of auto tech and skilled trades professionals, we are helping deserving students attain hands-on experience and trade-specific skill sets that lead to solid employment opportunities, successful career paths, and the ability to achieve their dreams.

By making a one-time donation of just $1,000 or more, your contribution will go a long way in helping to fund our invaluable student scholarship opportunities, as well as our efforts to raise awareness for the Skilled Trades as a career path, and in our attempts to educate and encourage more students to pursue educations in the Trades to help reduce the Skilled Trades gap in the U.S.

Additionally, and most importantly, your generous contribution will have a positive impact on the lives of hardworking, passionate students who are committed to do whatever it takes to overcome obstacles, break cycles, and defy the odds. These students aren’t looking for a handout, just a little help. Together we can make a difference, one student at a time!

With a donation of $1,000 or more, your organization would receive company logo placement on The Hourglass Foundation’s website and be promoted as a Corporate Sponsor via our social media and marketing collateral for 2023/2024. You’ll also receive a PNG file to add to your own website if you’d like to promote your support, along with a social media to post to your feed.
