SDADA Tool Program

The SDADA Board of Directors has decided to develop a Tool Grant Program that is intended to assist new technicians with the purchase of the tools necessary to perform the job. There are ten grants available per calendar year at $3,000 each. The three thousand dollar grant offered by the SDADA is intended to be matched by the dealership for a total of $6,000. Part of this program includes a contract that requires repayment of the $3,000 dealership match while the $3,000 SDADA Grant is not required to repaid.


Some additional program rules are as follows:


       An executed copy of the Technician Tool Grant Program Contract must be sent to the SDADA


       Since this program is designed to attract technicians, only new technicians are eligible to apply


       Grant checks will be issued in both the technician’s name and the dealer’s name to insure the funds are used for the intended purchase


       Toolbox and tool purchase receipts must be sent to the SDADA for auditing and tax purposes


       Each dealership or dealership group is eligible for only one grant per calendar year
