B & B Electric Scholarship

The B&B Electric Endowed Scholarship was established by B&B Electric. B&B Electric was started in Grand Junction, Colorado as a partnership in 1955. In 1967 the partnership was dissolved and the company transitioned to a Sole Proprietorship. Then in 1970 B&B Electric, Inc. became a Colorado corporation. In the late 1980’s B&B became a 2nd generation family owned company. The business continued to grow into the largest electrical contracting company on the western slope of Colorado. This successful growth as an industry and community leader earned B&B Electric, Inc., the Grand Junction Chamber of Commerce Large Business of the Year Award in 2005. Now the 3rd generation has come into the fold, setting the stage for B&B Electric, Inc. to be a family owned business in Grand Junction for years to come. B&B has been a long-time supporter of the University and wishes to establish this endowment in support of Mesa County students. B&B recognizes the significant economic benefits the University provides to the region and wants wishes to aid is the growth of the institution.
