Transportation YOU is a hands-on, interactive, mentoring program that offers young girls ages 13-18 an introduction to a wide variety of transportation careers. Through the Transportation YOU program and this scholarship, WTS chapters work to make a difference in the lives of young girls by offering opportunities and activities that will spark their interest in all modes of transportation and encourage them to take courses in math, science, and technology, which are the stepping stones to exciting careers that can change the face of the transportation industry. Presentation of awards will occur during the December Winter Gala - recipients are strongly encouraged to attend.

Award Amount: $2,000 annually, non-renewable. Recipients will also receive mentoring, access to various activities, and other opportunities.  The total dollars awarded for this scholarship is $2,000.
