The G3 Grow Beyond Scholarship is back.
G3, in partnership with Agriculture in the Classroom Canada (AITC-C), will award six scholarships of $4,000 each to students from across Canada* beginning their post-secondary education, in any discipline.
“The G3 Grow Beyond Scholarship was a great success in 2020, with thousands of votes cast for the videos that were submitted by an impressive field of bright young Canadians,” said Don Chapman, President and CEO of G3. “Our judges had a difficult task choosing winners from so many great entries and I’m sure this year will be no different.”
To apply, students must establish and explain their vision for the future of agriculture in Canada in a two-to-four-minute video essay. Students must also identify how their studies will help achieve their vision for the future of Agriculture. In addition to the scholarship, the winners’ school will also receive $1000.
Last year’s inaugural scholarships were awarded to six students beginning their post-secondary education in university and college across Canada.
“AITC-C is excited to be involved in helping the next generation of leaders reach their post-secondary educational goals,” said Johanne Ross, Executive Director of AITC-C. “Allowing youth to think innovatively and creatively about food and farming will help them to understand the role agriculture plays, not only their daily life, but also as a future career opportunity!”
Entries will be judged by a panel of industry professionals, and the public via online voting.
Applications for the G3 Grow Beyond Scholarship are due by April 1st, 2021.
