To provide financial assistance to the trades labor force in the Tri-State area.

Supporting our mission.

We help our community by providing citizens interested in a trades industry by helping them with education and cost, whether it be a vocation, college, or on the job training.

Our Vision: Joplin Trades Scholarship Foundation aims to support the up-and-coming work force entering various trades fields. This includes but is not limited to: Contruction, HVAC, Welding, Electrical, Auto Body, Mechanic, Business Manager or any hands on job training.

  • Our values are Honesty, Integrity, & Professionalism

  • Our goal is to promote and increase the workforce in various trades to deliver results in our community.

  • Our objective is to provide outside individuals and companies insight and information to search for incoming skilled laborers, and to be a valued source of support for the trades in Joplin and surrounding areas.
