Applications being accepted for National Dairy Board college scholarships
A dozen scholarships will be awarded based on academic achievement, interest in a career in a dairy-related discipline, and demonstrated leadership, initiative and integrity.
Applications are being accepted for college scholarships that are awarded by America’s dairy farmers and dairy importers through the National Dairy Promotion and Research Board (NDB). NDB funds, in part, Rosemont, Ill.-based Dairy Management Inc. (DMI), which manages the national dairy checkoff program.
Eleven scholarships worth $2,500 each will be awarded. Additionally, the NDB will award the $3,500 James H. Loper Jr. Memorial Scholarship to the outstanding scholarship recipient, DMI said.
