Tools for the Trades is an inspiring and exciting new program coming from the Dustin M. Burdoff Foundation. It is designed to not only motivate those who are interested in going into a trade but also to alleviate the stress of starting a new career.
We are accomplishing this by combining the two things that are at the heart of this foundation:
-
Celebrating those who embody the same ambitious entrepreneurial spirit of Dustin
-
Incorporating Ace Hardware of Fairmont, West Virginia, the homebase of the Dustin M. Burdoff Foundation.
Currently, Tools for the Trades is working with Marion County Technical School: the top three students who are graduating from a trades program will be awarded with the ultimate Ace Hardware
experience. This tailored award will serve as a launching pad, helping each of the graduates grow in their respective careers in the trades they have chosen.
The Dustin M Burdoff Foundation Inc, 501(c)3, identified by EIN 45-3085509, is a nonprofit organization dedicated to enhancing educational opportunities.
