Automotive Parts Associates Awards Scholarships

“Automotive Parts Associates is proud to be able to contribute to the future of the aftermarket industry by providing deserving students a helping hand to offset the cost of their education,” said Judy Sanell, APA director of operations.

Automotive Parts Associates (APA) has awarded five scholarships for the 2018-’19 academic year to the children or employees of APA shareholders.

The following individuals have each been awarded a $1,000 scholarship: Diana Davis of Clawson, Michigan; Neena Hernandez of Sylmar, California; Joy LaCava of Somerset, Massachusetts; Alex Renzetti of Chicago Heights, Illinois; and Grace Ziemer of Saint Paul, Minnesota.

The APA scholarships, administered by the University of the Aftermarket Foundation (UAF), were awarded to students who will be attending a two or four-year accredited college; an ASE/NATEF certified post-secondary automotive, heavy-duty or collision technician training program; or any licensed and accredited vocational school. In addition, once a student applies for an APA scholarship, the applicant also is considered for UAF and other scholarships available through the Automotive Aftermarket Scholarships Central website at AutomotiveScholarships.com.
