IRON MOUNTAIN -- Supporting the educational goals of employees and their families is a core component of The Toro Company's philanthropic support.
As part of this effort, two annual scholarship programs are available to employees and their dependents through both The Toro Company Scholarship Program and the Mike and Tami Hoffman Scholarship Program.
The 2026 scholarship recipients in Iron Mountain area are --
-- Hoffman Scholarship: Payton McMahon, Elliott Kramer, Ella Riley, Emily Kay, Kate Linstad, Hope Schuiteman, and Jasmine Bebo.
-- TTC Scholarship: Colin Petschar, Stella Mindok, Brady Wagnoner, Abigail Novak and Addison Paternoster.
Scholarship awards for both programs range from $1,000 to $4,000.
In 2026, more than $400,000 in financial grants were awarded to 177 students representing 22 TTC communities, including 12 scholarship recipients in Iron Mountain.
Since 1976, The Toro Company Scholarship Program has awarded students based on academic record, leadership and participation in school and community activities, honors and work experience, along with educational and career goals.
This year marks the 50th anniversary of the scholarship program and The Toro Company's partnership with Scholarship America as its first corporate client. Additionally, the Mike and Tami Hoffman Scholarship Program, founded by former CEO Mike Hoffman and his wife Tami in 2017, awards scholarships to students based primarily on financial need, while also considering academic and personal achievement.
