Honeycomb Heating & Cooling
The 2025 Honeycomb Trade Starter Award
Because every tradesman needs a good set of tools to get started.
A $500 Micro-Grant for San Antonio Students
A Message from
Our Owner
A Little Help Goes a Long Way
“I remember starting out in this industry. The training was hard, but paying for that first set of professional tools was even harder.
At Honeycomb, we know that $500 isn’t going to pay for your entire degree. We aren’t a massive corporation; we are a local business just like the one you hope to work for one day.
But we also know that $500 can buy your first set of manifolds, a great pair of work boots, or the textbooks you need to pass your exams. Our goal with this award is simply to help one deserving student close that gap and start their career with confidence.
It’s our small way of saying: ‘We believe in you.'”
— Brandon Caputo, Owner
