Andrew Mazza Diesel Jam Scholarship

The Andrew Mazza Foundation started in 2016, after the sudden loss of Andrew at the age of 23.  Andrew was a passenger in a car that had flipped over and became mostly submerged in a creek in Gibson, Pa.  When the second passenger was unable to exit the car, Andrew stayed with her and used his legs to keep her high enough so she could reach the air pocket. Thankfully, she lived and unfortunately, Andrew did not.  Andrew’s character and courage saved her life.  To honor Andrew, we created the Diesel Jam Truck Show in his name. This event now supports 30 scholarships to local high school students, who are entering a trade program as well as students already in Trade Schools.  Andrew Mazza Foundation supports local communities through charitable donations and through our annual Truck or Treat Halloween event in Clifford Twp. To see more of what The Andrew Mazza Foundation does, you can go to our website at andrewmazzafoundation.net or our Facebook at The Andrew Mazza Foundation.

Requirements:

An essay of approximately 500 words regarding ‘Character’. Prompts may include but not be limited to… What does character mean to you? How would you define character?

Essay is deliverable to either your guidance dept. or can be emailed to andrewmazzafoundation@gmail.com.
