This winter, SPIRE Credit Union partnered with Ogilvie Raceway to help provide Workforce Development scholarships to four Minnesota high school students. After receiving a state grant, Pine Technical & Community College approached SPIRE to help maximize the funds they received to provide as many scholarships as possible.
SPIRE joined its partner Ogilvie Raceway in contributing to the Workforce Development scholarships for students going into the fields of manufacturing, healthcare, and information technology. Four students received a $3,500 scholarship – the cost of one year’s tuition at Pine Technical & Community College.
