Engineered Giving Opens Scholarship for Future Heavy Lifting Professionals

Engineered Giving, a nonprofit foundation established by Engineered Rigging, is accepting applications for a $3,000 scholarship aimed at supporting students pursuing careers in the heavy lifting and specialized transport industry.

The scholarship is designed to encourage education and workforce development in sectors tied to crane, rigging and lifting operations. Applicants must plan to enter a related field and be residents of Indiana or Arkansas. Eligibility also requires enrollment or acceptance into an accredited college, university, vocational school or technical training program in those states.

In addition to academic qualifications, applicants must demonstrate a strong record of volunteerism, reflecting the foundation’s focus on community involvement.

“Engineered Rigging is committed to developing young talent who will carry the heavy lifting industry forward,” said Christopher Cox, P.E., founder and president of Engineered Rigging.

Applications are open through June 30, according to the announcement.

Engineered Giving was created to support educational and community initiatives connected to the lifting and rigging sector. Alongside the scholarship program, Engineered Rigging also offers internships and campus recruiting efforts aimed at building the next generation of industry professionals.
