BCA Presidential Merit ScholarshipThe Building Contractors Association of Northeast Indiana established this scholarship program to recognize significant accomplishments and reward worthy students in furthering their education in a post-secondary, construction-related education program. Two scholarships in the amount of $2500 are available.
Michael H. Kinder Jr. Memorial Scholarship
This scholarship is named in memory of Michael H. Kinder, Jr., who lived and breathed construction for 42 years while he was part owner of a local construction company. Mike’s love of all things construction continued until the day he died. He was a huge perfectionist about the work he and his company did, but he also had a huge heart, a bright smile, and a desire to help others learn and grow in the profession. Even though Mike was the “boss,” he ALWAYS arrived home from work dirty, because he couldn’t resist helping his crews. He was hugely passionate about growing and developing the next generation of construction talent and would be proud to have this award in his name. He also volunteered for numerous organizations during his career and in his retirement, including being highly involved with the BCA, from which he won the Summit Award in 2003. We are seeking students who we believe share a similar passion as Mike had for the construction industry, and we encourage you to do your best in conveying your passion in this application.
