GCAA FOUNDATION SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM

GCAA SCHOLARSHIP FOUNDATION

 Applications for 2026 now being accepted!

The Georgia Construction Aggregate Association through the GCAA Foundation is now accepting applications for 2026 Scholarship awards. The GCAA Scholarship Program is available to the dependents of any employee of a GCAA member company.  The parent or guardian must be employed by a GCAA member company with at least one year of continuous service and domiciled in Georgia.  In addition to students entering their first year of a two or four year college program, any student currently enrolled in a technical college and has not previously been awarded a GCAA scholarship is eligible.

The scholarship is a one-time award payable directly to the school of choice upon proof of enrollment.  School must be accredited by a nationally recognized accreditation organization.  There is no required minimum GPA, although it may be taken into account in the final recipient selection. School transcripts must be provided with application. In addition, an essay not to exceed 500 words is required along with an outline of extracurricular activities, community involvement and the student’s career goals. An emphasis will be placed on students that are pursuing a technical degree in science or engineering.
