Annual

Robert L. Backie Scholarship

The Robert L. Backie Scholarship provides educational opportunities for American Indian, Alaska Native, and Native Hawaiian students. Established in honor of Clutch CEO & Founder Garrette Backie’s father Robert.

An elder member of the Sault Ste. Marie Tribe of Chippewa Indians, Robert Backie established a co-op training program for minority students interested in tooling design and automotive engineering in his home state of Michigan. Backie also founded a student scholarship trust fund to support native high school graduates from low-income families attending GMI, General Motors Institute / Kettering University in Flint, Michigan.

Clutch is committed to continuing the legacy that was built by Garrette Backie’s late father, Robert, and hopes this scholarship will help Native Americans and other underrepresented youth pursue their passion for technology.
