The members of the Auxiliary of the UTU Scholarship Fund Board met in North Olmsted, Ohio, April 23-24, 2013. During the meeting, scholarships were drawn from the 53 applications submitted by Auxiliary members for the 2013-2014 school year. The board must “spend” at least 5 percent of our average annual net worth on scholarships to meet our Internal Revenue Service obligations. Through a random drawing, the board awarded eight (8) scholarships this year. These scholarships were drawn by Erika Diehl of the UTU Legal Department and Mary Kay Gubics, office secretary of the Auxiliary, in the presence of the Scholarship Fund Board members. The following are winners of the 2013-2014 Auxiliary Scholarships. Winners are listed in the order the applications were drawn. Congratulations to the scholarship winners! The Auxiliary of the UTU is proud to be able to help in the education of our Auxiliary family members.
