We’re excited to announce a brand-new scholarship program aimed at helping students interested in careers that help feed the world. As the last few years have shown, the food industry is an important part of our essential businesses that help keep us healthy, safe, and fed.

Two of the monthly winners will receive an additional $5,000 scholarship at the end of the program, during a dinner banquet where all the winners and their families will be invited to celebrate their accomplishments.
