The Wisconsin FFA Foundation has selected 21 recipients of 2009-10 scholarships totaling $13,550.
“It was tough for the selection committee to choose 21 out of 146 applicants,” said Nicole Nelson, executive director of the Wisconsin FFA Foundation. “There were so many well-rounded members that are all deserving of financial support. They’re all trying to get ahead and prepare themselves for successful careers in agriculture.”
Recipients had to meet general criteria as well as a variety of other specific criteria. The general criteria includes the following: be a member in good standing of the Wisconsin Association of FFA, be at least a senior in high school or already enrolled in college and have maintained a satisfactory scholastic record, and major in a program offered through an accredited university or technical college with special consideration given to students with interests in agriculture.
