On February 5, Pennsylvania American Water announced applications are now being accepted for its 2021 Stream of Learning Scholarship Program, which provides financial assistance to high school seniors who plan to pursue careers in the water and wastewater industry.
The deadline for applications is April 2.
The program is designed to support outstanding students living in Pennsylvania American Water’s service territories who are charting a course of study in specific fields, from engineering to environmental science.
The company will award scholarships of $1,000 each to 10 students. Applicants must:
-- Be high school seniors;
-- Live in a household that is served by Pennsylvania American Water (but may attend college outside of our service area);
-- Plan to attend a two- or four-year college or technical school; and
-- Plan to study environmental science, biology, engineering or chemistry.
“We believe in this opportunity to assist our best and brightest students who are interested in pursuing a career in the water and wastewater industries,” said Pennsylvania American Water President Mike Doran. “By attracting scholars to those fields that are vital to the future of our business, we hope to develop the talent in our communities for the long-term benefit of the environment.”
Winners will be selected by a panel of judges and will receive their awards in May. Family members of Pennsylvania American Water employees are not eligible to participate.
