Angus Foundation Increases Scholarships For Youth In 2003

The Angus Foundation will increase the amount of scholarships it awards in 2003. The Angus Foundation Board of Directors voted unanimously to increase the amount of scholarship monies awarded from $20,000 to $25,000, and increase the number of scholarships by three.

The top two scholarship recipients will receive $3,500. Eighteen recipients will receive $1,000 scholarships.

"Each year we have so many deserving applicants apply for the Angus Foundation scholarships," says James Fisher, director of activities and junior activities for the American Angus Association. "With the decision of the Angus Foundation board, we will be able to award more of these youth scholarships to help them with their college education."

Angus Foundation scholarships are awarded at the National Junior Angus Show each summer. An application is due to the junior activities department with a postmark date of May 15, 2003. A committee of qualified individuals will review the applications and decide on the scholarship recipients.

The scholarships were first awarded in 1998. The Angus Foundation was established in 1980 as a not-for-profit organization to support programs for youth, education and research in the Angus breed.
