william b. and marcia h. Howell Scholarship
In memory of William B. and Marcia H. Howell,
their children Johannes and Deborah Howell Kurd
and Robb and Joann Howell established an annual
scholarship within The Troy Foundation for
students to further their education in welding
at the Hobart Institute of Welding Technology.
“Both of our parents’ lives were tightly
intertwined in Hobart Brothers Company. They
believed in and supported the welding industry
and were both strong believers in education and
affording opportunity to those wishing to
participate in its advancement,” says Deborah
Kurd. “By offering the scholarship in their
memory, we feel we are furthering their
commitment.”
U.S. citizens with the proper credentials are
urged to apply for the $750 scholarship by April
1 of each year through The Troy Foundation, 216
West Franklin Street, Troy, OH
45373. Applications for the scholarships are
available from the offices of The Troy
Foundation or on the website
Hobart Institute of Welding Technology - Troy
OH- Scholarship Website Info
An independent selection committee of The Troy
Foundation reviews applications and makes the
awards in May. Students may use the
scholarships toward tuition for any program of
welding training at the Hobart Institute.
Unused portions of any scholarship will be
returned to the fund within the Troy Foundation
for use by future scholarship winners |
