We’re thrilled to announce that our second title will be available this fall! Through the She Built Foundation we are exploring the many industries that have a labor shortage as well as an underrepresentation of women. 🚗 Now is the perfect time for those in the automotive industry to get involved in the work we are doing!

Exciting news! 🌟 We're proud to partner with Rebellious Wines Kobrand Corporation to launch the Rebellious Riveters Scholarship! With nearly 800,000 new technicians needed by 2027, it's crucial to break gender norms and bridge the skills gap. Women make up less than 3% of employed technicians. Let's change that. “Support from Rebellious Wines contributes to TechForce Foundation’s charitable work of inspiring all students to explore technician careers, supporting them through their education and connecting them to successful careers. We’re dedicated to increasing representation and partnering with like-minded partners like Rebellious Wines to empower students around the U.S. and provide the crucial support they need to break into these fulfilling careers,” said TechForce Foundation CEO, Jennifer Maher. #UnapologeticallyRebellious #RebelliousRiveters #TechForceFoundation #SkilledTrades #ScholarshipOpportunity

Someone Got a Scholarship! Houston’s journey is a testament to perseverance and passion for technical work, despite early struggles in traditional education due to undiagnosed ADHD 🎓🔧. At 35, he enrolled in UTI/MMI in Orlando, facing a grueling 2.5-hour commute and financial hardships, including staying in extended-stay hotels and selling his car 🚗🏨. With a background in a family-owned auto body shop and Motocross, Houston’s technical skills shone through as he maintained a 3.9 GPA 📚🏁. His relentless drive and the award of the Justin Beutel Memorial Scholarship have now paved the way for him to continue his education and follow his dreams 🚀🌟.
