Local Women for Agriculture chapter supports future aggiesBY AMY ASMANScholarships are bestowed on students with ag-based career goals, and are made possible by the fundraising efforts of local California Women for Agriculture chapter members. One of the main goals of the group is promoting the importance of agriculture through education. This year’s recipients were Margarito Lua of Santa Maria High School; Kevy Souza, Jonathan Velazquez, and Anthony Reade of Ernest Righetti High School; Edith Garcia and Christopher Jorge of Allan Hancock College; and Amanda Heath and Lisa Baray of Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo. Funds were also awarded to local schools for the purpose of growing school gardens and sending teachers to annual “Ag in the Classroom” conferences. For more information about the Santa Maria chapter of California Women for Agriculture, call Stacy Grant at 938-5230. |
