(Trenton) Investors Bank through the Investors Foundation awarded the NJAC Foundation a grant of $21,000.00 for county vocational-technical school graduates who plan on continuing their education at a county college or state college or university.
“On behalf of the Board of Trustees of the NJAC Foundation, I’m thrilled that Investors has awarded the Foundation this generous grant; and, I look forward to working with our county vocational-technical schools in selecting scholarship winners committed to advancing their education in the great State of New Jersey” said NJAC Foundation President Heather Simmons.
The Foundation is partnering with the New Jersey Council of County Vocational Technical Schools to identify outstanding candidates and will distribute two $500.00 scholarships to well-deserving students in all twenty-one counties across the State. Since 2011, Investors Bank has awarded the NJAC Foundation grant monies totaling $200,000.00, which has helped over 250 county vocational-technical school graduates continue their education at home in the Garden State.
“I’m grateful that Investors and the NJAC Foundation have once again partnered on this important and timely initiative to provide county vocational-technical school graduates with valuable scholarships that will help them and their families meet the ever- increasing financial demands of pursuing an quality education,” commented Simmons.
