The Nevada Heritage Foundation is offering a scholarship aimed at supporting students from Nevada who are pursuing trades related to agriculture. This initiative targets graduates from Nevada high schools and those already engaged in agricultural trades. Eligible candidates must belong to a family that is a member of the Nevada Farm Bureau.
Trades considered for this scholarship include veterinary technology, welding and fabrication, trucking and transportation, agriculture business, horticulture, irrigation technician, animal health worker, dairy farm supervisor, among others. The foundation seeks applicants who can clearly demonstrate how their chosen trade supports the agricultural industry and its producers.
The scholarship committee intends to provide financial assistance to students showing dedication to agriculture. One award of $2,000 will be granted.
To apply for the scholarship, candidates need to submit a completed application form along with their most recent transcript and two letters of recommendation. Applications can be submitted either as hard copies or electronically; however, both formats are not required.
The recipient will be selected based on their potential success in trade school and their ability to contribute positively to the agriculture industry upon completing their program.
For more information and updates on this opportunity and other news from the Nevada Farm Bureau, interested individuals are encouraged to sign up for notifications.
