Bruce Johnston Memorial Scholarship
​
The International Milk Haulers Association has an Educational Scholarship Award Program. This program was created after the passing of IMHA and Michigan Milk Transporters Association long-time board member and friend, Bruce Johnston. After his passing, the board directors of IMHA wanted to begin a program to assist with higher education costs for those who have a desire to obtain a degree and have been in the milk hauling industry, in Bruce's honor. Golfing was one of Bruce's favorite pastimes and so the board of directors felt it appropriate to allocate proceeds from the outing to the Scholarship fund. Member's children are encouraged to apply.
