BTA Awards 24 Scholarships

BTA Awards 24 Scholarships

The Business Technology Association (BTA) has announced its 2023-24 scholarship winners. Twenty-four students were awarded scholarships.

Each year, BTA awards one $3,000, one $2,000, and several $1,500 and $1,000 scholarships to qualifying children of full-time employees of current BTA member dealerships. Since the 1984-85 school year, BTA has awarded 1,561 scholarships to deserving students, totaling $1.7785 million.

The BTA Scholarship Foundation is supported by continuing contributions from individual dealers, as well as manufacturers and distributors.

On Feb. 23, 1968, the Dorothy R. Ames Scholarship Fund was announced in honor of Ames at her retirement dinner in Great Neck, Long Island, New York, for her many contributions to the industry. Ames retired as the executive vice president of the Ames Supply Co. Ultimately, the fund became the BTA Scholarship Foundation, benefiting the sons and daughters of employees of BTA member dealerships nationwide.
