Heniff Transportation Systems is awarding 24 academic scholarships for the 2024-2025 school year.
The carrier established its Heniff Scholarship Program in 2018 to offer tuition assistance to the children of Heniff employees to support their continuing education in college or vocational schools. The program has awarded $355,000 in scholarship money to 56 recipients to date, the company reported.
“Congratulations to all of our worthy scholars this year,” Bob Heniff, Heniff founder and CEO, said in a news release. “I really enjoy this program because it assists so many families in the organization and gives our scholars a great opportunity to pursue their studies at the schools of their choice.”
Heniff Scholarship Program award winners are selected based on varied criteria that include academic performance, participation and leadership in school and community activities, work experience, and noteworthy personal or family circumstances. Recipients will be able to apply tuition assistance toward study at accredited two- and four-year colleges, universities, or vocational-technical schools. The program is managed by Scholarship America, a non-profit organization that helps students fulfill their college dreams. The organization works with partners like the Heniff family of companies to lower barriers to a college education and give students the support needed to succeed.
