2 Memories, Stories & Photos about Samuel

Good Morning, I was saddened to hear of the passing of Mr. Sam Scott. While I did not know the man, I had over many years heard of his kindness and generosity. I was a customer of Scott Electric since starting operations in New York. His sales people told many stories of this successful, humble man.
I was able to arrange several gifts from the Scott Electric Foundation for schools in the Western New York area, including Canisius High School, St. Joseph Collegiate Institute and Nativity Miguel School.
These wonderful schools were able to update there lighting systems with The Foundations generosity.
Many thanks for these wonderful gifts. May Sam's memory live on in the

Scott Electric donates $20K to Shepherd Foundation - 18 November 2015
SHEPHERDSTOWN, WV — The Shepherd University Foundation received a $20,000 gift from Scott Electric, a regional wholesale electrical distributor based out of Greensburg, Pennsylvania. Monica Lingenfelter, executive vice president of the Foundation, accepted the donation on behalf of Shepherd University.

The gift is designated for unrestricted use with a preference for campus projects pertaining to green and restorative maintenance projects.

“One of our focuses is a continued relationship with people,” said Rusty Potts, a commercial outside representative for Scott Electric, who presented the gift. “We’re here to build longstanding relationships with the community.”

Now in its second year, the Scott Electric Foundation previously made an unrestricted gift to Shepherd University in 2014.

Scott Electric was founded more than 60 years ago by World War II veteran Sam Scott, who gifted the company to his employees upon his own retirement. They chose to honor Scott’s spirit of generosity by creating a self-sustaining nonprofit foundation with the intent to make charitable gifts to hospitals and universities within Scott Electric territories.

Scott Electric is a wholesale electrical distributor and supply store offering a wide range of products, as well as the owner of several subsidiaries, the two largest of which distribute copy paper and recycle universal waste. Shepherd University is the paper distributor’s largest client. The company operates nine satellite offices throughout Pennsylvania, New York, and Maryland, including an office in Hagerstown, Maryland.
