Aster Contractors Foundation Scholarship

The Aster Contractors Foundation Scholarship is designed to enable Aster contractors and their families to pursue their educational goals. The foundation believes in the power of education and its ability to change lives for the better. Eligible candidates include Aster employees who have been employed for a minimum of one continuous year, or their spouses, partners, children, or other dependents. Recipients may attend accredited two- or four-year colleges, universities, certification programs, career or technical programs, or graduate programs in the United States on a full-time or part-time basis. Candidates may pursue any field of study, though preference is given to students enrolled in construction-related fields. The scholarship provides $5,000 per year for the duration of the program or degree. Additionally, one "Jay Elliott Building for Tomorrow Scholarship" is awarded annually for $10,000 per year to the candidate with the highest financial need and character scores. This special scholarship is awarded each spring and provides enhanced support for exceptional candidates demonstrating significant need.
