CHARLOTTE, N.C., Sept. 27, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — Autobell® Car Wash announced they awarded monetary scholarships to assist with college tuition. This year’s eighty-eight team members from five southern states were selected for their academic diligence and accomplishments, productive extracurricular activities, and civic engagement.
“We’re an employer of choice for so many high school and college students because of our flexible hours that allow students to put education and school activities first,” says Katie Sens, Director of Human Resources. “Each year, we’re inspired by our young team members’ talent, work ethic, and community involvement.”
Since 2001, Autobell® has awarded more than 2.1 million in scholarships, with more than 165,000 awarded in 2022. The scholarship program is an extension of the car wash company’s values, and the reason so many team members work at Autobell® throughout their college years as well.
“The college scholarship I received is just one of the amazing benefits of working at Autobell® for the past three years,” says Izaiah Blizzard, a 19-year-old Autobell assistant manager in Chesapeake, VA, and freshman at Tidewater Community College. “My team members and managers at the various stores I worked in both Virginia and North Carolina make this way more than a job – these are friends and mentors.”
