Delaware State Grange establishes endowed scholarship at Delaware State University
DOVER — The Delaware State Grange has established an endowed scholarship to support agriculture students at Delaware State University.
The Delaware Grange launched the endowed scholarship on Feb. 22 with a donation of $22,500.
Founded in 1875, the Delaware State Grange is a chapter of the National Grange. This non-profit organization advocates for rural America and agriculture and brings rural communities together through community service.
The members of the Delaware State Grange unanimously agreed to establish the endowed scholarship fund at Delaware State University to provide financial assistance to future generations of farmers and agriculture professionals and to promote awareness of the organization’s dedication to strengthening rural communities.
The scholarship will be awarded beginning in the 2026-2027 school year. The first preference for the scholarship will be to award an agriculture major who is also a Delaware resident. The second preference will be an agriculture major regardless of residency, and the third preference will be a natural resources major who is a Delaware resident.
