We’re proud to share these photos from two recent SMART Heroes events: the graduation ceremony for the latest cohort in DuPont, WA, and a visit to the Colorado Springs, CO, cohort at the Air Force Academy Chapel renovation project.
The PenFed Foundation awarded a $50,000 Military Heroes Grant to support the SMART Heroes Program. This is an initiative dedicated to empowering transitioning service members and veterans through career training in the sheet metal industry.
The SMART Heroes Program provides participants with in-demand skills and industry certifications, offering a direct pathway to employment in a high-demand field. By focusing on education and workforce development, the program bridges the gap between military service and civilian career success.
