Atlanta I-CAR Volunteer Committee Awards $5,000 Student Scholarship

Award presented to Godofredo Pacheco of Maxwell High School of Technology through the Collision Repair Education Foundation.

The Atlanta I-CAR Volunteer Committee has awarded a $5,000 student scholarship to Godofredo Pacheco of Maxwell High School of Technology in Lawrenceville, Ga., through the Collision Repair Education Foundation.

This scholarship will assist Pacheco with education costs to continue his study of collision repair. Funding for this scholarship was made possible through the committee’s annual golf and car show fundraiser events.

“The members of the Atlanta I-CAR Committee have continued to focus on supporting new technicians entering the collision field,” said I-CAR Georgia State Chairman and Atlanta Committee Chairman Gerry Poirier. “This scholarship will be the third awarded since 2012 that will help replenish our dwindling technician base. The fundraising efforts are a critical part of what our committee members and supporting businesses have done to make this scholarship a reality. Many thanks go out to everyone who made this possible.”
