El Grupo presenta la 11ª edición de su programa de becas universitarias anual

California Water Service Group (el Grupo) ya está aceptando solicitudes para el 11º ciclo de su programa de becas universitarias anual, una de las formas en que la compañía de servicios públicos demuestra su compromiso para mejorar la vida de las personas a las que presta servicio. Residents living in areas served by its California, Hawaii, New Mexico, and Washington subsidiaries are encouraged to apply for part of the $80,000 in award money.

Four $10,000 scholarships will be awarded, along with additional scholarships ranging from $2,500 to $5,000, for the 2024-2025 academic year. Eligible applicants must plan to enroll in a full-time undergraduate study program at an accredited college, university, or vocational-technical school next school year. Scholarships will be awarded based on academic achievement, community service, and financial need.

"Investing in the education of tomorrow's leaders is one of the most impactful ways to improve the quality of life in the communities that we serve," said Martin A. Kropelnicki, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "College is expensive, and to keep costs from being such an obstacle, we are pleased to be able to help some of our local, hard-working students realize their dreams of higher education."

Las becas anuales forman parte del programa de donaciones filantrópicas del Grupo, financiado por los accionistas, y no inciden en las tarifas de los clientes. El programa es administrado por Scholarship America, una organización sin fines de lucro 501(c)(3). Hasta la fecha, a través de su programa, el Grupo ha otorgado becas a estudiantes por un valor de $675,000.
