Ag Partners Announces 2022 Scholarship Winners

The Ag Partners Cooperative, Inc. Scholarship Program was established to assist in the further education of high school students interested in pursuing higher education in an agricultural-related field. Applicants must be a child or grandchild of a current Ag Partners member-owner or employee, be enrolled at a post-secondary institution immediately following high school graduation, and demonstrate leadership abilities, academic performance, and desire to further their education and career in an agricultural-related field. As part of their application, students submitted an essay describing how they saw cooperatives impacting the next generation of the agriculture industry.

During the 2022 program application period, Ag Partners received numerous applications from accomplished high school seniors in the area. These applicants highlighted the determination and passion for the ag industry, as well as rural communities, in our youth today. The five winning recipients will have $1,000 sent in their name to the post-secondary institution they will be attending following high school graduation. 

Congratulations to the 2022 Ag Partners Scholarship Recipients: Mackenzie Gormley (Hiawatha), Creighton Johnson (Bendena), Broc Leatherman (Denton), Jordan Sylvester (Wamego), and Hailey Wurtz (Seneca).
