Scholarships

In our continuing commitment to promote awareness and education, the Salinas Valley Chapter of California Women for Agriculture (CWA) offers two scholarship programs for women in Monterey, San Benito and Santa Cruz County. The scholarships, for Women Pursuing Degrees in Agriculture and Farm Workers, will be awarded to women pursuing a 4-year Bachelor’s degree, a 2-year Associate’s degree from a Junior College, or a degree from an accredited trade school.

There is no age restriction on either of these scholarships, nor is either based upon financial need. Applications are due no later than Friday, April 25, 2008. CWA will award these scholarships in May 2008. Please contact Colby and Jennifer at scholarship@salinascwa.org with any questions.
