Established in 1978 in honor of Frank Bonadio and the Building and Trades Department of the AFL-CIO. Organized on February 10, 1908, the Department is composed of National and International Unions operating in the United States and Canada. Mr. Bonadio served as Secretary-Treasurer of the Department and was its President at the time the scholarship was established.
