100 4-H Members Receive Ram Truck Scholarships

Apr 08, 2014

The rural youth organization, 4-H Canada announced the winners of its Ram Canada “100 scholarships for 100 years of 4-H in Canada.”

One hundred 4-H members from across the country were given a $1,000 scholarship for post-secondary education. The total amount given by The Chrysler Foundation was $100,000.

“These scholarships, which are based on merit, academic records, leadership, and involvement in the agricultural community will go a long way to help deserving young people throughout the country further their education,” Reid Bigland, President and CEO of Chrysler Canada said in a release.

According to 4-H, about 200 members applied for the scholarships. Candidates were asked to submit a 500-word essay and provide letters of reference.

“We are very proud of our reputation as a leading positive youth development organization in Canada,” said Shannon Benner, CEO of 4-H Canada.

In 2013, Ram declared the “Year of the Farmer,” with the launch of its “So God Made a Farmer” Super Bowl commercial last February. Ram donated $1 million to the U.S. organization FFA, and now recently expanded its support to 4-H Canada youth.
