Building Careers. Strengthening Communities. Supporting the Trades.

Helping the Next Generation Build Strong Futures With Skilled Hands

Rennell Community Foundation is a nonprofit organization dedicated to helping students and young adults enter skilled trades. We support future electricians, plumbers, carpenters, welders, HVAC technicians, and other trade professionals through scholarships, tools, training support, and real-world guidance.

Many hardworking young people want a stable career but lack access to the right resources. College is not the only path to success. Skilled trades offer meaningful work, strong income potential, and long-term job security. Our mission is simple: remove barriers and open doors so more people can build rewarding careers while strengthening the communities they live in.

| What We Do

At Rennell Community Foundation, we focus on practical help that leads to real outcomes. Our programs are designed to meet people where they are and support them at every step of their journey.

Scholarships

Education should be accessible to everyone. We provide financial assistance to students and young adults pursuing trade schools, certification programs, apprenticeships, and vocational training. These scholarships help cover tuition, course fees, and testing costs so students can focus on learning not worrying about money.

Tool & Equipment Support

Tools are essential in the trades, but they are often expensive. We help individuals access the tools and safety equipment they need to start working with confidence. From basic hand tools to protective gear, this support helps remove one of the biggest obstacles to entering the trades.

Trade Education & Mentorship

Knowledge grows faster when shared. We support educational programs and mentorship opportunities that connect students with experienced professionals. Through guidance, encouragement, and real-world advice, we help young people understand what it truly takes to succeed in a trade career.

| Who We Serve

We serve students, young adults, and individuals seeking a practical career path—especially those who may not have access to traditional education or financial support. Many of the people we help come from working families, underserved communities, or situations where opportunities are limited.

Our focus is on those who are motivated, hardworking, and ready to learn—but need a helping hand to get started. When we invest in people, the impact reaches far beyond the individual. Families become stronger. Local businesses grow. Communities thrive.

| Why the Trades Matter

Skilled trades are the backbone of our communities. Every building, home, road, and system depends on trained professionals. Yet today, many industries face a growing shortage of skilled workers.
