Tower Family Foundation Eclipses $3.5M in Support of Tower Workers and Families

The Tower Family Foundation announced yesterday that the organization has surpassed a significant milestone, exceeding $3.5 million in total giving. Since its inception in 2014, the Tower Family Foundation has awarded a total of $3,502,988 in direct financial assistance and scholarships to eligible tower workers and their families.

“From the start, the Tower Family Foundation has remained steadfast in its mission to stand beside industry workers and their families in the wake of workplace accidents and times of unexpected hardship. It is deeply meaningful to see how our support has helped ease the burden during some of life’s most challenging moments. No worker or family should have to face these circumstances alone, and we are committed to continuing this vital support for years to come,” stated Tower Family Foundation Board Member and Advisory Committee Chairman, Dan McVaugh. 

The Foundation also offers a limited number of merit-based scholarships to NATE member company employees and their eligible dependents. Scholarship recipients are selected through a comprehensive review process based on academic achievement and responses to written essays. The deadline to apply for the 2026-2027 academic year is May 31.

Students interested in applying for a Tower Family Foundation Scholarship are encouraged to review the guidelines and complete the official application. To learn more about the Tower Family Foundation or to make an online contribution, visit towerfamilyfoundation.org.
