WaFlorA Scholarship Available to Horticultural Students |

Floriculture/Horticulture
College Scholarships as
Well as Industry Seminar Stipends Available
from and
Education Foundation
The Washington Floricultural Scholarship and Education Foundation,
the scholarship arm of the Washington Floricultural Association (WaFlorA),
is currently accepting applications for college scholarships as well as
stipends for educational conferences.
The association has made getting the word out about their
educational funds a priority, because in some recent years not all
available funds have allocated when not enough applicants applied. WaFlorA
President Chris Miller sees the scholarship program not only as an
important source of educational funding for students and WaFlorA
employees, but for the future of the group itself, bringing in the new
generation.
Individuals who are interested in floriculture or horticulture are
encouraged to apply for a scholarship from the WSRCF to help them continue
their education, obtain a degree, or to further their education via
pertinent seminars. Eligibility for the WSRCF Scholarship is very open;
the only true requirement is an interest and pursuit in the
floricultural/horticultural field of study. Submittal deadline is May 15th
of each year.
WaFlorA not only makes scholarship money available to students
taking horticulture and related subjects at universities and community
colleges, but also makes funds available to both members and students to
go to industry meetings and seminars both locally (such as WaFlorA’s
Greenhouse Management Institute) and across the country (such as the Ohio
Short Course) to take advantage of educational opportunities available at
these sessions. Applications must be received five weeks prior to event
and grants will only cover registration costs, not travel or
accommodations. Interested parties should download an application from the association’s web site at waflora.com (click on the link for WSCR Fund – Scholarships), or for further information contact Paul Troutman at (360) 671-6310. |
