Gene Haas Awards $5,000 to CLC, Inc.'s Scholarship Fund

In October of 2022 The Gene Haas Foundation contributed $5,000 to our Scholarship Fund. The money will contribute directly to scholarship recipients that are taking our CNC Machining Training Program. The Gene Haas Foundation was established in 1999, by Gene Haas, founder and owner of Haas Automation, Inc., to support the needs of the local community, through grants to such local charities as the Boys and Girls Clubs, Food Share, Rescue Mission, and others.

Seeing a growing need for skilled manufacturing employees industry wide, the Foundation expanded its mission to include support for manufacturing training programs throughout North America and beyond. By providing scholarship grants, sponsoring individual and team CNC competitions, and partnering with the very best CNC training programs in the world, the Foundation helps expand the availability of high-quality manufacturing technology training worldwide.

The Gene Haas Foundation donates millions of dollars every year to manufacturing education and the community. In 2020, the Gene Haas Foundation provided more than $20 million in grants, bringing the total since inception to more than to $120 million.

I would like to extend a warm thank you to The Gene Haas Foundation. Our training programs afford opportunity to many people in the DFW area at a free or reduced cost. Contributions like this one make it all possible!
