Peacock Receives $50,000 from Canadian Welding Association

On October 27, 2015 at 9:30 am, The CWA Foundation and the Marinucci Family Foundation (MFF) will present Albert E. Peacock Collegiate with $50,000 that will be given over 10 years – $5,000 annually to help enhance their welding program.

 

“Through the generous gift of the MFF, we are able to offer Albert E. Peacock Collegiate with the funds to provide their students with a better quality learning experience within their welding program,” said Deborah Mates, executive director of the CWA Foundation. “It is our objective to grow this model program by encouraging other individuals, corporations and industry partners to look within their own communities to support their local secondary school welding programs.”

 

Limited budgets for welding programs often limit the ability to purchase new technology, learn new welding processes or purchase new personal protective equipment. The schools have been selected based on the history of the program, student success, as well as internal and external recommendations from welding education experts.

 

“The MFF, a Canadian Charity established in 2010, is committed to funding programs that significantly improve youth education. We are excited to partner with the CWA Foundation to significantly enhance secondary school welding programs across Canada,” said John Marinucci, founder and chairman of the MFF.

 

The MFF was founded in 2010 and continues to provide support to education based programs and initiatives. John Marinucci serves as a current member on the board of the CWA Foundation. Marinucci, retired as president and CEO of New Flyer in 2009 and previously served as president of National Steel Car.

Martin Holzer, welding teacher at Albert E. Peacock Collegiate, said the funds are much appreciated and will enhance the welding program at the school. “We’re very grateful for this donation as it will tremendously help our welding program and students,” Holzer. “Knowing there is an organization out there like the CWA Foundation that helps Canadian welding programs is very beneficial because welding programs are very costly to maintain, but a significant component to education.”
