Delaware Equine Council Foundation Scholarship

Scholarship Sponsored by Delaware Equine Council Foundation

Value: $1,500
Awards Available: 5

Welcome to the Delaware Equine Council Foundation. We are an independent, non-profit organization (501 C-3), dedicated to promoting scholarship in the agricultural and equine fields of study.

Each year, the Foundation awards scholarships to high-achieving college students, pursuing their education in fields that will enhance the equine or agricultural industry. These scholarships are supported by the Delaware Equine Council, donations received from generous contributors within the community, and fundraising events.

Essays are solicited from scholarship candidates in the fall and winter. A panel of highly qualified judges, chosen for their expertise in the equine and agricultural fields, selects the recipients. Scholarships are awarded at our annual banquet in March.

In 2023 the Foundation granted five, $1500 scholarships to students.
