2017 All American Co-op Scholarship Winners Announced
All American Co-op awards $2,500 in scholarships to area students
All American Co-op has honored 5 area students with $2,500 in scholarships, each student receiving a $500 scholarship. The All American Co-op scholarship program is designed to support local students that are continuing their education in an agricultural field of study at an accredited two or four year college, university, or vocational-technical institute.
All American Co-op feels it is important to encourage students to consider agricultural studies. “There is a wealth of opportunity in the agricultural industry today and All American Co-op is proud be able to offer these scholarships”, says Glenn Lutteke, General Manager for All American Co-op. “It is an honor to be able to award scholarships to such a distinguished group of individuals that represent the future of agriculture in Southeast Minnesota.” The Scholarship Committee was pleased with the number of quality applicants the co-op received and said that choosing the Top 5 Finalists was a difficult decision. Each winning student will be awarded a $500 scholarship that can be used towards costs associated with their college education fees. All American Co-op is committed to supporting students seeking a continued education in an agricultural field of study. “Congratulations to all of the 2017 finalists; we wish them continued success in their academic and professional goals.”
