Carpenter Technology Retired Employees Scholarship Fund

This fund was established in 2005 by a retired Carpenter Technology employee, Dan Kubacki. Mr. Kubacki worked at Carpenter Technology for 41 years before retiring in 1981. He established the fund to benefit the children of employees of Carpenter Technology, a company that meant a lot to him throughout his life, and to provide a vehicle for other retired employees to add to this fund.

High school seniors who are children of non-officer Carpenter Technology current employees (Berks County site only) are eligible to apply as long as they have obtained a cumulative high school GPA of 3.0 or higher on a 4.0 scale and will be full-time, undergraduate students at an institution of higher education after graduating from high school. The institution of higher education may be a 4-year or 2-year college, university, vocational, technical, computer or trade school.

Grandchildren of Carpenter Technology employees are not eligible to apply unless their parent is currently employed at Carpenter as a non-officer employee. Carpenter Technology employees are not eligible to apply or receive this award. Scholarship applicants shall exhibit a strong commitment to academic achievement and be actively involved in school and/or community activities, and have a financial need. The intent is to acknowledge and encourage those individuals who have demonstrated a level of personal responsibility necessary to attend and succeed in a continuing educational institution, and have demonstrated exemplary citizenship and personal character throughout high school.
