As part of National Welding Month in April, ESAB awarded $5,000 to support welding programs at Princeton High School and Lovelady High School, part of the Princeton Independent School District, through its ESAB Future Fabricators Charlie Monschke Welding Education Grant. ESAB, a world leader in fabrication technology, also surprised the school with an equipment donation with a combined retail value of more than $8,000. The award and gifts were presented during a tour of ESAB’s Denton facility.
ESAB started the grant in 2024 to honor Charlie Monschke’s memory by supporting high school welding programs in Denton and the Dallas-Fort Worth area. Monschke was a manager of advanced mechanical engineering at ESAB’s Denton facility for years and passionately supported high school welding programs before his death in 2023.

Today, the 436,000-square-foot Denton facility serves as one of ESAB’s flagship manufacturing, research and North American distribution locations.
