Bohrson Marketing had another successful 50K for the Future scholarship program as part of their New Year’s Resolution sale. In the first round over 60 applicants submitted essays answering the question: “Who is your role model and how do they inspire you to be successful in the future?”
Out of the initial go-round eight youth were selected, then had in-person interviews with a panel of five judges.
The program is for youth aged 15 to 25, either pursuing secondary education or staying at home building their own herd. Both categories were valued at $25,000 either as a sales credit or scholarship.
