The Women’s Industry Network (WIN) has announced 11 new recipients to receive the 2021 WIN College Student Tuition and Conference Scholarship Award.
This scholarship is presented annually to deserving students enrolled in a post-secondary collision repair technology program. Each recipient receives a $1,000 scholarship to continue their post-secondary education in collision repair and complimentary registration to attend the 2021 WIN Educational Conference. They also are provided with the opportunity to be mentored by one of the Most Influential Women (MIW) honorees or a member of the WIN Board of Directors.
“We are so lucky to have such supportive sponsors and members, who enable WIN to be able to offer students with this opportunity to advance them in the collision repair industry,” said Debbie Menz, 2021 co-chair of the Scholarship Committee. “We have awarded 11 female students this year who will receive this stipend, along with real mentoring opportunities and exposure to other successful women in the industry.”
