Thank you, HMR Supplies for the generous establishment of this scholarship! HMR Supplies Announces $1,000 Scholarship (Forest City, Iowa) – One of this year’s Forest City High School seniors will begin his or her studies in the fall supported by a $1,000 scholarship from HMR Supplies. This annually funded scholarship is for a student who plans to study skilled trades at NIACC. The scholarship, managed by the Forest City Education Foundation, will be awarded for the first time on FCHS Senior Awards Night, Wednesday, May 14. “We recognize the increasing demand for skilled trade workers,” said Chris Holland, president of HMR Supplies, who hopes the financial assistance will encourage students to pursue a trade profession. “Supporting the higher education goals of our local graduates this way will directly impact their future employment opportunities in the manufacturing industry. Natalie Hammer, vice president at HMR Supplies, said there are critical skills gaps challenging manufacturers today. “We hope this scholarship to NIACC will help students gain the skills needed for a successful start and then launch them into one of the types of trade careers we employ.” HMR Supplies designs and manufactures heavy transport dollies and equipment for a variety of industries including wind, oil and gas, and marine. The company, which specializes in designing products able to move items that cannot be moved by conventional means, began in 1981 manufacturing the Holland Dollie. Today it designs or rents out products for a variety of heavy equipment industries including transport, structural moving, heavy hauling, large construction, large product, oil field, cement, marine, and wind.
