Allied Wire & Cable has
announced Matthew Rayner
as the first beneficiary of its
new company-run scholarship
programme. Matthew is
the son of Ron Rayner, a
warehouse associate at Allied’s
headquarters in Collegeville,
Pennsylvania, USA since 2008.
The scholarship programme,
which will run annually, is open
to children of full-time AWC
employees with at least three
years on the job.
Students are eligible to apply
for the $10,000 scholarship
during their senior year of
high school, and they must be
college or university-bound and
have a minimum GPA of 3.0.
Scholarships are awarded based
on both merit and financial
need, and are payable over the
course of the student’s college
career.
Matthew Rayner is a freshman
at Penn State Abington. To help
cover the cost of tuition, he will
be awarded a cheque for $2,500.
As long as he maintains a 3.0
GPA or higher, he will receive
one cheque each year during his
four-year college programme,
for a scholarship totalling
$10,000.
Mr Rayner said, “Receiving the
Allied Wire Scholarship is a great
accomplishment in my academic
career. I appreciate Allied Wire
giving me opportunity (to be)
the first ever recipient of this
award, and it is something that I
will always appreciate.”
Tim Flynn, Allied’s CEO, said,
“Allied Wire & Cable has always
has taken pride in helping those
with needs in our community.
