“Strike a Spark” Vanessa Barrett Welding Scholarship

Inspired by family member and Laney alumna, Vanessa, the “Strike a Spark” Vanessa Barrett Welding Scholarship fund was established to provide financial assistance to Laney College welding students interested in a career in welding engineering and related fields.
 
Intended to help students become welding professionals who keep our roads, bridges, and infrastructure strong, safe, and standing, the $50,000 investment is monumental to bridging the wealth gap for our students and a great benefit for our community.
 
Laney Welding Department Chair Richard Hashimoto invites community industry partners to consider donate matching funds to educate and tool the next generation of skilled welders.  Any amount small or large will make a huge impact toward our goal to a building brighter future – one student at a time.
