J&H Machining and Welding donated $45,000 to Lone Star College Foundation. The money will help students enrolled in the machining, robotics or automotive programs at LSC-North Harris.
“Lone Star College Foundation appreciates companies such as J&H Machining and Welding for their generous donations that help to alleviate some of the financial burdens that our students might face,” said Nicole Robinson Gauthier, CFRE, LSC Foundation Executive Director. “These funds can potentially motivate individuals to start or complete their college education.”
J&H Machining and Welding is a local business that specializes in welding repair. The company donated funds to LSC Foundation to encourage more students to seek careers in the machining and welding industry.
“We would like to see more educated and well-trained individuals enter this fast-growing industry which can offer them a stable career,” said Vicente Moreno, J&H Machining and Welding Owner. “We hope our donation will help current students fund their education and encourage others to enroll in these critical programs.”
The Machining Technology Program trains students to set up and operate various machine tools to create precision parts and instruments out of metal. The Welding Technology Program prepares students to become welders in the fabrication, construction and manufacturing industries.
