The Pig Raffle is Back – Honoring Chad Graybill’s Legacy
The Pig Raffle is back—not just as a tradition, but as a way to honor a man who gave everything to Grant Nation: Chad Graybill.
Chad’s sudden passing has left our Grant Career Center community with heavy hearts. For more than two decades, Chad poured his passion into this place—first as a Carpentry Lab Instructor and later as Placement Coordinator. He was more than an educator; he was a devoted husband, father, mentor, and advocate for every student who crossed his path.
Chad believed in connecting students with real opportunities—internships, meaningful work experiences, and careers in the skilled trades. His warm smile, his relentless support, and his refusal to give up on any student defined his legacy.
To continue Chad’s mission of helping students succeed, proceeds from the Pig Raffle will benefit the Chad Graybill Memorial Tool Scholarship. This fund will provide financial assistance to students pursuing skilled trades, helping them purchase the tools they need to learn, work, and build their futures.
