Colonial
Agricultural Educational Foundation
"To
provide financial support for higher education which will enable
deserving students to grow, prosper, and contribute to their
communities."
Educational
scholarships are awarded to students who are furthering their education
through attendance at a college, university, vocational, or trade
school. Scholarships of $1,000 are awarded annually to individuals who
exhibit an aptitude for learning and a desire for self-improvement
through education. Recipients must be of at least college age, reside
in one of the counties served by Colonial Farm Credit, and full time
students.
The
Foundation also financially supports organizations that provide
education and community enrichment. Programs and services offered
through agricultural commodity organizations and youth organizations
such as 4H, FFA, and Scouts are typical of projects the Foundation
supports.
Seed
money for the Foundation was provided by Colonial Farm Credit, which
continues to contribute annually. Additional funding for the Foundation’s
activities is provided through donations made by individuals,
corporations, organizations, and other foundations.
Since
1991, the Foundation has awarded over $1,000,000 in scholarships!
