DCA’S SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM
The Delaware Contractors Association Scholarship Trust was established in 1989 with a $50,000 investment by DCA to provide scholarships to employees or dependents of employees whose company is a member. Over the past 30 years, DCA has awarded 106 scholarships, totaling $112,000, to 125 students. The scholarship’s name was changed by the Board in 2009 to honor John McMahon upon his retirement, and is now known as the John J. McMahon, Jr. Scholarship.
While the majority of the recipients have attended the University of Delaware, the list of other schools represented is extensive, including the University of Maryland, Penn State University, and the University of Notre Dame, in addition to local schools such as Delaware Technical Community College, Wilmington University and the Williamson College of the Trades.
The Scholarship Committee is chaired by Gregory Sawka of Bancroft Construction Company and its members include Len Brooks, George & Lynch, Inc.; Ed Devenny, Whisman, Giordano & Associates, LLC; Vincent N. Greggo, Greggo & Ferrara; and Elizabeth Pennington, I.D. Griffith, Inc. DCA is most appreciative of the Committee for its service.
Please contact Jamie Chambers at 302-994-7442 for further information about the scholarship program.
