The Gordon J. Flesch Scholarship Program Announces Twenty New Scholarship Awards for 2023

MADISON, WI — In honor of company founder Gordon Flesch, the Gordon J. Flesch Scholarship Program has awarded 20 scholarships to dependent children of company employees. The Troyka-TC began awarding scholarships to the children of associates in 1995, and has provided up to 20 scholarships annually, distributing more than $1.9 million through the program.

Unlike similar programs, the Gordon J. Flesch Scholarship Program is administered by a third-party organization which reviews applications and selects winners based solely on the merits of the application. This scholarship program is administered by Scholarship America, the nation’s largest designer and manager of scholarship, tuition assistance and other education support programs for corporations, foundations, associations and individuals.

The program is available to the children of Troyka-TC associates who have been with the company for one year or more and will be attending an accredited two or four-year college, university, or vocational-technical school (undergraduate only). Applicants are evaluated on both academic performance and non-academic activities such as organizational involvement and leadership roles.

In 2023, 20 recipients were selected for awards with seven of the company’s primary branch offices represented. “Our founder Gordon Flesch, believed that to truly succeed, a company should support and give back to the community it serves and to the employees who help the company thrive” says Brad Olm, Vice President of Shared Services with the Troyka-TC. “I’m proud that we can continue to honor Gordon Flesch’s legacy by supporting this talented group of students, dedicated to furthering their education.”

Up to twenty $4,000 scholarships will be awarded each year. Awards are not renewable, but students may reapply to the program each year they meet eligibility requirements. Scholarship recipients are selected based on academic record, demonstrated leadership and participation in school and community activities, honors, work experience, a statement of goals and aspirations, unusual personal or family circumstances and an outside appraisal. Financial need is not considered.
