Scholarship

Dear Brothers & Sisters

It is time to apply for the Robert J. Cavanaugh - Millwright Local 740 Scholarship.

        To do this you will need to contact the New York City District Council of Carpenters Benefit Funds (212-366-7300 ext.7584) to request an application for the Charles Johnson Memorial Scholarship. You should do this the first week in September of your child's senior year of high school. You will need to meet all the requirements of that scholarship. All applications must be received back at the funds office by mid-November of your senior year.

        Please keep in mind that the winners are not chosen solely on their scholastic achievements. They are also measured on their community service, their participation in other school activities as well as after school activities. This is all done by an independent agency.

         As in the past the member must be in good standing at the time of the award. This will be a once in a lifetime award to a graduating high school student going to college for the first time. It will go to the two applicants from Millwright Local 740 that scores the highest on the Charles Johnson Scholarship, regardless of their placement for that scholarship.

        Our scholarship is available to the dependant children of members. Proof of dependency may be required prior to the award.

        The awarding of the scholarship, as well as adding the winning child’s name to the scholarship plaque, will be done in July 2009.

If you have any questions please call the office.
