Member Company Scholarship

Member Company Scholarship by California League of Food Processors

They provide a scholarship program to full-time workers (year-round or seasonal) and their families employed by members of the CLFP Processor and Supplier Host Council in an effort to encourage higher education.

As a small token of our gratitude to those members and their families for supporting this significant industry, we are giving employees and dependents of employees from California member food-processing facilities the chance to win a $500 or $1,000 scholarship to pursue higher education in California.

The scholarships will be distributed as follows: undergraduate students enrolled in four-year accredited California colleges and universities will receive $1,000 scholarships, while students enrolled in two-year accredited California community colleges will receive $500 scholarships.
