The Florida School of Woodwork, in Tampa, is offering two scholarships to be awarded in 2019.

The Makers Hand Scholarship will be awarded to a young person between the age of 14 and 25 years. The goal of the scholarship is to encourage the next generation of woodworkers and support them in their learning. Applicants must have a desire to engage in craft and have a creative mind.

The goal of the Helpers Hand Scholarship is to support the love of woodworking and to recognize the people in our communities who help make the world a better place. Applicants must be at least 18 years old and can only be nominated to the scholarship by someone recognizing their contribution to society. Nominated individuals must have helped someone in a time of trouble, rendered aid in an emergency, put themselves in danger to ensure the safety of others, or provided knowledge, time or guidance unstintingly.
