APTF Adds 2 Scholarships

The American Public Transportation Foundation (APTF) raised $50,000 for a scholarship in the name of APTA President William Millar, who leaves his position Oct. 31, at the Oct. 1 “Tribute to Bill Millar” that preceded the 2011 APTA Annual Meeting and EXPO in New Orleans.

In addition, Bombardier has become the first company to join APTF’s “Take Us There” campaign to increase the number of named scholarships.

Raymond Bachant, president of Bombardier Transportation North America, provided a generous check to the foundation during the meeting, fully funding the APTF “Bombardier Transportation Scholarship.” Bachant challenged other companies to join the campaign.
