TBG Education Foundation

Now more than ever, America needs men and women who will build. The current labor shortage in the building trades is projected to grow, which means those who are willing to join the trades will be paid more, receive more benefits and enjoy better lifestyles than at any other time in history.

The TBG Education Foundation has joined with businesses throughout the building trades and their suppliers to create awareness of the many career opportunities men and women can find in the construction fields.

Let's Tee It Up For The Trades

When you tee up this July, you’ll help provide Minnesota’s youth with the grants, scholarships and apprenticeships they need to build the future of the construction trades. Together we’ll build the future one putt at a time.
