Supporting technicians of tomorrow
CRC Industries and NAPA are working together to support the next generation of automotive technicians through education, training, and scholarship funding.
In partnership with TechForce Foundation, CRC and NAPA are helping close the skilled labor gap by investing in students pursuing skilled careers as veteran technicians retire.
Working together for the future of the trades
CRC Industries and NAPA proudly support trade schools like UTI and nonprofit partners like TechForce Foundation, which connects students to scholarships, education, and career pathways in the skilled trades.
As part of this effort, CRC and NAPA are partnering to offer up to $75,000 in scholarships through TechForce during March and April 2026, helping students stay on track toward in-demand technician careers.
How the industry helps make this possible
During March and April, CRC is turning product sales into scholarship support.
By stocking and selling select CRC products during the Retail Sales Driver, participating retailers help grow the scholarship fund — up to $75,000 total.
For every CRC product sold during the promotion, CRC will donate $0.10 per can to TechForce Foundation in support of future technicians.
