As farm broadcasters, we may be out of school, but our education isn’t done. The NAFB Foundation Continuing Education Grants provide an opportunity for NAFB farm broadcasters to take advantage of opportunities for growth. The Foundation is providing a maximum of $5,000 in grants annually*. Individual members of the NAFB Broadcast Council are eligible to apply for a maximum of $1,000.
Applications will be evaluated within two weeks of the information being received. Upon grant approval, checks will be made payable to the broadcaster’s employer or the event/course being attended/completed; please include a mailing address to where the check should be mailed should your grant application be approved.
NAFB Foundation Continuing Education Grants may be used for a variety of educational opportunities. Examples include:
