S-5! & National Women in Roofing give back to the industry

S-5 National Women in Roofing give back to the industry
September 24, 2024 at 4:00 p.m.

Supporting the future generation of women leaders.

S-5!, the global leader of metal roof attachment solutions together with National Women in Roofing (NWIR), is sponsoring a new scholarship program to empower women who wish to pursue educational opportunities in the skilled trades. The initiative aims to support women in their journey towards successful careers in the trades and contribute to the overall advancement of the construction industry. 

Part of S-5!’s core vision is to educate and participate in the metal construction and metal roofing industries as contributors, thought provokers and leaders—to be catalysts for positive change and growth, impacting the community through service, leadership and charitable giving.

NWIR is a volunteer-driven organization committed to supporting and advancing the careers of women in all facets of roofing—from manufacturing and design to installation, repair, management and every step in between. Through a commitment to connect and empower women in roofing, NWIR enhances the professionalism and overall quality of the roofing industry.

The NWIR & S-5! Scholarship aims to identify an individual who aligns with the collective vision and supports her educational and professional aspirations.

"We are pleased to partner with S-5! on this exciting initiative dedicated to advancing the career development of young women and highlighting the diverse opportunities available in the skilled trades,” said Katie Bodiford, NWIR Executive Director. “Industry recruitment is a key pillar for our association’s mission, and together with S-5!, we are committed to promoting diversity by empowering and guiding these young women as they embark on their journeys toward a successful future.”                                                                                        

The scholarship offers a $2,500 financial award from S-5! to be applied toward the recipient’s chosen trade school. In addition, NWIR will provide a one-year association membership and personalized career mentorship from an experienced NWIR member. 

To qualify for the NWIR & S-5! Scholarship, applicants must complete an application online; provide two recommendations; be willing to report on progress, maintain regular communication with NWIR; be accepted to a trade school; and be a United States citizen. 

Applications are due by December 1, 2024, and will be reviewed by the NWIR & S-5! Scholarship Committee. To apply, visit https://info.s-5.com/nwir-s-5-scholarship. For more information, email the scholarship committee at: kreichert@s-5.com.

“We are very excited to unveil our new program dedicated to supporting women in the trades,” said Jessica Haddock, S-5!’s Director of Marketing. “The S-5! charity committee invests considerable time and energy into developing initiatives that not only drive the industry forward but also resonate with our core values. This initiative is a natural extension of our mission, and we are excited to implement it with our friends at NWIR.”
