Applications Sought for
the 2023 Clarence Sprague-John West
Scholarships and Grants
Program
The New Hampshire Grange Foundation invites
applications for the 2023 Clarence Sprague-John West Awards, an
educational scholarship and grant program. New Hampshire residents
pursuing an education related to agricultural production, economics or
education, in that order of priority, are welcome to submit
applications. Preference is given to Grange members and their direct
relatives.
The New Hampshire Grange was bequeathed a generous
gift of money from Clarence Sprague, a successful businessman who
benefitted from a local Grange scholarship in his youth. A separate NH
Grange Foundation has been established by the NH State Grange to
administer these funds and oversee the program. The
scholarships are named the Clarence Sprague-John West Awards, after the
benefactor and a dedicated Grange member and teacher.
Awards are available in five categories of
Scholarships and grants:
Post-Secondary: student enrolled in an accredited institution of
higher education leading to a degree
Continuing
Re-certification: enrolled in a program to meet requirements of
re-certification for a licensed position
General
Equivalency Diploma: for the cost of classes or testing for a GED
diploma
Adult
Education Enrichment: course, seminar or program designed to
improve skills
Farm
Internship and Agricultural Program: an informal education program
related to farming or agribusiness.
One application form may be used to apply for any
of the five categories. The application may be submitted
electronically, or printed and mailed. Awards will vary up to $1000
each. Visit the NH Grange Foundation website to download an application
and criteria. The 2023 application deadline is April 30th. For more
