The Dorchester Farm Bureau is offering one or more scholarships for $1,000. The Dorchester County Farm Bureau Scholarship is available to any student who wishes to continue their education in an agricultural field. Continuing education may take the form of a two- or four-year degree or a certification training program at a fully accredited college, institution, or University within the United States. If you are selected, a scholarship check will be made payable to the student and college you are attending (following the completion of the first semester).
The Scholarship Committee will review the applications, and the Dorchester Farm Bureau Board of Directors will make the final decision. The Board of Directors reserves the option of not awarding a scholarship.
