Duluth Building & Construction Trades Council Scholarship Fund
The Duluth Building & Construction Trades Council Scholarship Fund started after the sale of Shoreview House of Hope, established in the 1980s to fill a housing need for patients and their families who came to Duluth for medical treatment. The council received the first Minnesota AFL-CIO Community Services Award for Shoreview. Eventually, the region’s health care industry met these medical needs. The council sold Shoreview, with proceeds establishing the scholarship fund.
