In 1979, several faculty, alumni and friends of the College
of Agricultural Sciences and Technology had a million-dollar
idea -- to start a foundation that would benefit, promote and
support the college and its programs. The supporters set out
to raise $1 million in endowed scholarships. Today, the Ag One
Foundation stands at over $5 million.
Over the years, donors, board members and volunteers have made
it possible to award some 2,900 students with over $2.1 million
in scholarships and grants. For the 2008-2009 academic year,
Ag One will provide $220,000 to deserving students and
programs. For a complete list of endowments, click here.
