The NAPB BORLAUG SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM strengthens the plant breeding profession by helping support attendance of future leaders at the NAPB Annual Meeting. We seek advanced graduate students attending school in the United States. Each Borlaug Scholar will be paired with mentors who are members of NAPB and are committed to your professional development. Each recipient will receive financial support for travel, lodging, and registration expenses for the NAPB Annual Meeting.SPONSORSHIP
Thank you for supporting the NAPB Borlaug Scholars travel grant and scholarship program. This program helps recruit, develop, and advance future plant breeders by covering the cost of attending the NAPB Annual Meeting. It also benefits the institutions that train and employ these scholars and gives mentors a meaningful way to give back to the plant breeding community. Your contributions help strengthen the future of plant breeding and its impact on food security, quality of life, and sustainability.
NAPB partners with the Agronomic Science Foundation (ASF) to administer this fund with minimal overhead, so more of your donation goes directly toward supporting emerging plant breeders. The experience and conservative investment approach of ASF helps protect and grow the fund over time.
To contribute, click the Donate Now button below to visit the ASF donation page for the NAPB Borlaug Scholars Fund. Your donation may be tax-deductible, as NAPB is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization, and you will receive a receipt for your gift.
Thank you for paying it forward and investing in the next generation of plant breeding leaders.
