A new scholarship program will provide financial support to students pursuing careers in construction. The initiative, launched by S-5!, a manufacturer of metal roof attachment solutions, reflects the company’s commitment to workforce development in the built environment.
The company’s scholarship will award $1,500 to a student enrolled in a construction-related program at a trade school, community college, or university. The goal is to assist those who demonstrate a passion for contributing to the built environment—whether through project management, engineering, skilled trades, design, solar installation or other industry-aligned disciplines. By encouraging educational and professional development, this initiative invests in the future of the construction industry.
“This scholarship is an extension of our belief that knowledge and opportunity drive progress in construction,” says Rob Haddock, S-5! founder and CEO.
S-5! seeks to educate and participate in the industry as contributors, thought provokers and leaders—to be catalysts for positive change and growth, impacting the community through service, leadership and charitable giving. The scholarship encourages innovation, workforce development and long-term industry growth.
To qualify, applicants must:
- Be accepted to an accredited trade school, college, or university program in a construction-related field
- Submit an online application and two letters of recommendation
- Be willing to maintain communication with S-5! and provide progress updates
- Be authorized to live and study in the U.S.
“We are excited to launch this program and help build a strong pipeline of talent entering the construction industry,” says Haddock. “It’s a meaningful way for us to give back while supporting those who will lead and shape the future of our field.”
Applications are due November 1, 2025, and will be reviewed by the S-5! Scholarship Committee.
