Wyoming Farm Bureau Federation Scholarships

The Wyoming Farm Bureau Federation (WyFB) awarded $5500 in college scholarships to nine young Wyoming Farm Bureau Federation members for the 2023-24 school year.

“Investing in the youth of our great state as they work to accomplish their academic goals is important to the Wyoming Farm Bureau Federation,” said Todd Fornstrom, WyFB President. “We are proud to honor these outstanding individuals with college scholarships to play a small part in helping them achieve their goals.”

The Livingston-King Scholarship, valued at $1500, is given in honor of Herbert D. Livingston and H.J. King, former presidents of Wyoming Farm Bureau Federation, as well as Buddy and Norma Livingston, the parents of former WyFB President Perry Livingston.

The 2023 Livingston-King scholarship was awarded to Madison Greer, of Hyattville. She will be a freshman at Sheridan College studying plant science. Her parents are Tyler and Amber Greer.

The five Wyoming Farm Bureau Federation Scholarships are $500 each. The 2023 recipients include Kailee Gill of Moorcroft. Gill will be a freshman at Eastern Wyoming College where she will be studying ag business/equine science. Her parents are Gabe and Jenni Gill.

Wyoming Farm Bureau Federation also awards three Continuing Education Scholarships of $500 each. Students receiving a Continuing Education Scholarship must be an entering college sophomore, junior, senior or graduate student.

“Congratulations to each of the recipients,” Fornstrom concluded. “We wish them the best in their continued education endeavors.”
