The Timken Company is helping fund the futures of 20 students in pursuit of careers ranging from economics and agriculture to medicine and education. In an awards ceremony last week, the company presented college scholarships to the children of Timken associates in the United States, China, India, Poland and Romania. Since the Timken Global Scholars Program’s inception in 1958, The Timken Company Charitable and Educational Fund has awarded more than $26 million in scholarships to 815 students.

These students – enriched by their educational opportunities – will play key roles in driving the world forward.”

Cassie Craig, daughter of maintenance team leader Christopher Craig and Angela Craig, earned the Henry Timken Scholar Award, valued at $25,000 annually and renewable for up to three years.
