The American Road & Transportation Builders Association Transportation Development Foundation (ARTBA-TDF) is now accepting applications for the “Highway Worker Memorial Scholarship Program” for the 2010 academic year. The program provides financial assistance to help the children of highway construction workers killed or permanently disabled in the line of duty pursue post-high school education.
The scholarship program was launched in Oct. 1999 through a generous $100,000 gift from the families of past ARTBA Chairmen Jack and Stan Lanford of Roanoke, Virginia, and is supported today with contributions from industry foundations, firms and executives, and labor organizations. The scholarships have a value up to $5,000.
