Your membership in the Connecticut Carwash Association (CCA) again provides your employees and their families with an exclusive scholarship opportunity! It also provides you with a valuable employee benefit that can help motivate an employee while enabling him/her to grow.

Two $1000 Scholarships will be awarded exclusively to CCA-member employees in 2022. It is important to note that this award can be used for any type of continuing education, be it full or part time. Applicants will be evaluated based on their high school standing, leadership capabilities, community involvement, strength of character, personal achievement, plan of study and future goals. The scholarship will be awarded to individuals who, through their work in the community and at your business, have demonstrated excellence and a genuine desire to expand their knowledge.

To be eligible an applicant must:

√ Be an employee or direct family member of an employee of any CCA member
√ Have been an employee, full or part time, for at least 1 year
√ Have graduated high school or have the equivalent by the spring of this year
√ Be enrolled or plan to enroll at an accredited post-secondary educational institution full or part time and
√ Not be an owner, or direct family member of an owner of a carwash facility, manufacturer or retail supplier to the car wash industry.

Please find enclosed a page with notification of the award. This page is provided to you to help inform your employees of the scholarship award. Please use this page to make copies that can be distributed to your employees in their paychecks. Your employees can then contact our offices to receive an application packet.

It is the hope of the CCA Board of Directors that every member will encourage their employees and their families to take advantage of this great opportunity. We all know that $1,000.00 can go a long way in defraying the cost of higher education. Don’t let your employees miss out!
