Automotive Parts Associates Announces Scholarship Recipients for 2019-2020 Academic Year

The APA scholarships are administered by the University of the Aftermarket Foundation.

For the 2019-2020 academic year, Automotive Parts Associates (APA) has awarded four scholarships to the children or employees of APA shareholders.

APA has awarded a $1,000 scholarship to each of the following individuals:

  • Lourdes Blazquez of Philadelphia
  • Jessica Steinberg of New Hope, Pennsylvania
  • Alexander Tetzlaff of Muskego, Wisconsin
  • Brock Westermayer of Burnsville, Minnesota

The APA scholarships, administered by the University of the Aftermarket Foundation (UAF), are awarded annually to students who are attending, or will attend, a two or four-year accredited college; an ASE/NATEF-certified post-secondary automotive, heavy-duty or collision technician training program; or any licensed and accredited vocational school.

Once a student has applied for an APA scholarship, the applicant also is considered for other scholarships available through the foundation’s Automotive Aftermarket Scholarships Central website at www.AutomotiveScholarships.com.

“We are excited to be able to help provide the means for students within the Automotive Parts Associates family pursuing a secondary education,” APA Director of Operations Judy Sanell said. “We are proud to be able to give a hand up toward the future to the families within our organization and their communities.”
