PAVE’s Student Aid Program was created to recognize the need to assist students who are experiencing financial difficulties that may hinder their ability to continue their schooling. This new grant program assists students with the intent of providing for basic needs such as food, housing, books, tuition, health insurance, medical bills, utilities, and transportation.
"It is an honor to aid in stewarding funds toward deserving students. We were touched by the needs and aspirations of each of the applicants and reminded of the realities students are facing in today's economy. I hope that in years to come, we have even greater opportunities to share prosperity that nurtures creativity," said Bill Goddu, vice president, marketing, Fleetwood Fixtures and PAVE Board member.
Students were required to submit a grant application, a letter explaining their need for aid, a letter from an educator, and a copy of their transcript.
