Since 1977, the NAFB Foundation has awarded scholarships to students who are studying agriculture communications.  This year, the Foundation will award it’s 100^th scholarship as three $5000 scholarships—the Glenn Kummerow Memorial Scholarship, the George Logan Scholarship and the Orion Samuelson Scholarship—are presented to deserving college students.  Applicants should be a college junior, senior or grad school student enrolled in agriculture communications.  Applications are due by June 2 to be considered for this year’s judging; recipients will be informed by early September.  The scholarship application is available on the NAFB Foundation website.

Here’s how you can help:  if you know of any college students who would qualify for this scholarship program, please forward this note to them and direct any questions about the process to Barbara Young ([log in to unmask]) at the NAFB office.
