PLANET AEF Scholarship Program
As many of you are aware, the PLANET Academic Excellence Foundation (PLANET AEF) has grown and been very successful in fundraising over the last few years. The contributing Ambassadors are individuals and suppliers who are leaders in the landscape contracting industry. We were privileged to award 66 scholarships to deserving students in 2008.
I have attached the PLANET AEF Scholarship application for 2009. We would appreciate your help in identifying students and providing this application to those who you think not only qualify for the scholarship but also deserve special recognition.
Scholarship applicants must be enrolled at a college or university that has a PLANET – accredited landscape contracting curriculum, is a PLANET student chapter, or is a participating PLANET Student Career Days school.
*Requirements include* completed application signed and dated by both student and faculty advisor, two letters of recommendation, most recent academic transcript, and photograph.
*Please note that the deadline is December 1, 2008. *
Should there be questions, please call the PLANET office at (800)395-2522 or e-mail me at kristennolton@landcarenetwork.org for additional information.
Please note that students can also download the scholarship application at PLANET’s Web site at http://www.landcarenetwork.org/cms/programs/foundation.html.
I appreciate your help in making this opportunity available to your students, and we know you share in the satisfaction of providing them a helping hand!
Sincerely,
Kristen Nolton
