Seaboard Foods has awarded 65 high school seniors with $1,000 scholarships each, aimed at supporting their pursuit of certificates and degrees from technical schools, colleges, and universities this upcoming fall.
“At Seaboard Foods, we are committed to nurturing the educational aspirations of our future leaders,” said Davida Gomez, community enrichment specialist for Seaboard Foods. “We are proud to support the educational dreams of young individuals within the communities where Seaboard Foods operates.”
The scholarships are focused on supporting education in the states where Seaboard Foods has operations—Oklahoma, Kansas, Texas, Colorado, and Iowa—and also extend to the children of Seaboard Foods employees. Recipients were selected based on their academic achievements, extracurricular activities, work experience, and community engagement.
This scholarship initiative is part of Seaboard Foods’ ongoing commitment to enhancing education, with a belief that strong educational systems are essential for building strong communities for future generations. Since 2003, Seaboard Foods has awarded nearly $528,000 in scholarships to approximately 465 high school seniors.
