About

The Gene Haas Foundation offers scholarships that help build skills within the machining industry. In 1999 Gene Haas founded the Gene Haas Foundation. Growing up with a strong social conscience instilled by his family, Haas initially formed the foundation to fund the needs of the local community. 

Haas is the owner of Haas Automation, Inc., America's leading builder of CNC machine tools, which he started in 1983. Haas Automation is now a billion-dollar company and the largest machine tool manufacturer in the United States. This extraordinary growth has all come in an era when American's were being told that the United States doesn't manufacture anything anymore. Those perceptions and decisions made in our education system regarding vocational education have led to dire statistics. A recent report called The Skills Gap in U.S. Manufacturing 2015 and Beyond projects that, "Over the next decade, nearly three and a half million manufacturing jobs will likely need to be filled, and the skills gap is expected to result in 2 million of those jobs going unfilled."

Gene's commitment to the importance of US manufacturing has incited him to grow his personal foundation and direct his foundation board to focus on manufacturing education in the form of scholarships for machinist training.

About
David Wayne Warner had a great love of woodworking. For many years he was able to support his growing family as a millwright. Over the years he enjoyed tinkering in his wood shop. It was a way for him to relax, think, and of course, create. As a youth in junior high school, David started learning how to turn lamps. This was something he would return to as he aged. When he retired, there was a need to have a hobby that would keep him busy. In his early 80's he began turning lamps again and sharing them with family, neighbors, and friends.

He used his gift as a talented woodworker to bring joy to others as well as to better his own circumstance. It would please him very much to feel that in some small way, he helped better the life of another. This scholarship is provided by family and friends off David Wayne Warner with the hope that the recipient of this scholarship be instrumental in seeing that jobs get done with the quality expected and that his or her work ethic, attention to detail, and an eye for what looks good and what does not, is second to none.
