A&J Duct Cleaning Scholarship

A&J Duct Cleaning

At A&J Duct Cleaning, with support from American Made Plumbing, we’re committed to giving back and helping people move forward.

We know that not everyone gets the chance to follow the traditional path. College first, then a dream career. Sometimes, life forces you to start before you know where you’re headed. Many people look back wishing they had a second chance. We want to offer that opportunity. That’s why we’re proud to offer the Second Chance Scholarship—a $2,000 award to help one student pursue their education at the university of their choice.

Eligibility Criteria 

  • Age 21+
  • GPA 3.0 or less, but not more! (If applicable)
  • GED Score can be anything (If applicable)
  • GED or High School Diploma Required (Please contact us if you have reason for not having this yet)
  • Must be a Citizen of the United States
  • Must be able to provide a digital copy of a 1500+ word essay
  • Must Demonstrate financial need (document proof, or write about it in the ‘Anything Else?’ section)
  • Must have some sort of difficult challenge in your life that you can tell us about in your essay

How We will Determine a Winner and Pay Out

We will be reading all of the submissions and we’re really looking for authenticity and honesty. Remember we’re not concerned by your past mistakes; only that you are truly trying to do something about it all, and that’s what you will want to be sure to best convey in your essay. Once we pick our favorite essay, we will reach out to you directly and determine the details regarding your university of choice. We will then coordinate with you to make sure the payment goes directly to the University Division of Financial Aid and that’s it!
