- To influence qualified Civil Engineering students’ career paths by providing financial assistance in the pursuit of study in the field of transportation engineering.
- To administer contributions and endowment funds to insure that sufficient interest is generated annually to fund at least one substantial award.

Since 1986, a total of $180,600 has been paid to Civil Engineering students at universities in Alabama. In 2018 the Foundation awarded one scholarships with a total value of $10,000.
