AGC OF OHIO EDUCATION FOUNDATION SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM

The Associated General Contractors of Ohio Education Foundation awards scholarships annually to outstanding
students pursuing a career in the construction industry. The Scholarship Fund is managed by the AGC of Ohio Education
Foundation, a 501c3 nonprofit corporation established in 1999. The first scholarships were awarded in 2000.

AGC of Ohio, affiliated companies and divisions fund the scholarships in their name with a one-time $20,000 donation to
the Foundation. A panel of construction professionals selects the scholarship recipients based on their cumulative grade
point average, work experience, extra-curricular activities and achievements, financial need, and an essay.

Currently, AGC of Ohio awards seven scholarships annually. In addition, the Education Foundation administers scholar-
ships sponsored by the following AGC affiliated individuals and organizations: Akron AGC, AGC of Northwest Ohio (2),
Baker Concrete Construction, Central Ohio AGC (2), Cleveland AGC, The Timothy P. Galvin Scholarship, E. Grant Hesser
Memorial Scholarship, Independence Excavating, The Knoch Corporation, Kokosing, Inc., Liberty Construction, Lincoln
Construction, Robert H. Moyer, Precision Environmental, Rudolph Libbe, Inc. (2), The Ruhlin Co., Settle Muter Electric,
Shook Construction Co., Tuttle Construction, Inc., and West Central Ohio Divison of AGC. The Foundation also selects
the recipients of the Mosser Construction scholarships in two Northwest Ohio area colleges.

In addition to scholarship sponsorship, members can help the scholarship fund by providing a donation with their
membership dues, and participating in the annual AGC of Ohio Golf Outing benefitting the scholarship fund.
