Castagra Roofing Scholarship Program
Offered by Castagra Products, Inc.
About this scholarship
The 2026 Castagra Roofing Scholarship Program supports people preparing for careers in roofing or closely related building-industry fields such as construction and waterproofing. Castagra will select one $1,500 winner and one $500 runner-up; neither award renews automatically, although applicants may reapply in a later year while eligible. The program welcomes U.S. and Canadian citizens and permanent residents who are pursuing postsecondary college or vocational education and care about innovation or sustainability. Castagra also explicitly considers applicants who are not planning to attend school if they can demonstrate a serious commitment to entering the industry and explain how they would use the funds. The application is embedded on the official scholarship page and may alternatively be emailed to the published scholarship address. Applicants provide contact details and submit either a two-to-four-minute video or a 500-to-1,000-word essay describing educational and career goals and the contribution they plan to make to roofing. Castagra gives special consideration to applicants focused on sustainability or innovation. Employees of Castagra Products and their family members cannot apply. Complete submissions must arrive by midnight Pacific time on September 4, 2026.
