Horsens wins auto care scholarship

Emelie Horsens, of Cecil, has been selected for a $5,000 Women in Auto Care Scholarship.

Horsens was selected in June from more than 1,000 applicants to receive a University of the Aftermarket Foundation Scholarship and plans to attend Northeastern Wisconsin Technical College to study collision repair. The foundation provides funding for aftermarket educational programs, research, and scholarships. Through its grant program, the foundation and other donors and organizations will award more than 300 scholarships in 2021 and have awarded more than 4,000 since the beginning of the program in 1995.

“It is a privilege to support the next generation of people looking to have a career in the auto care industry. We look forward to seeing them succeed,” said Danielle Sonnefeld, co-chairman of the scholarship committee.
