ALCIVIA is pleased to announce the winners of our annual scholarships. The cooperative recently presented 25 scholarships of $1,000 each to a group of local high school seniors and collegiate students pursuing post-secondary education. Scholarships were awarded during ALCIVIA’s annual scholarship reception, that was held virtually to bring students together from across the state of Wisconsin. Recipients were able to discuss future goals and aspirations with ALCIVIA leadership during the reception.
“We are proud to invest in the future of agriculture and youth leaders. It is a pleasure to help students along their academic journey. By awarding scholarships, we are able to set students on a path to success. They have excelled not only in academics, but also in their personal and extra-curricular endeavors” emphasized Jim Dell, CEO and President of ALCIVIA.
The ALCIVIA scholarship program encourages academic, professional, and leadership development. ALCIVIA is delighted to announce the 2021-22 winners.

“For many years, ALCIVIA has demonstrated a commitment to investing in the future of agriculture and the communities it serves. Providing scholarships for the children of co-op members is just one of the many ways ALCIVIA delivers on that commitment. This year’s recipients are poised for a bright future,” said Jim Lange, ALCIVIA’s board chairman.
Recipients were selected from a pool of applicants based on cumulative grade point average, leadership, scholastic achievement, extracurricular activities, personal motivation, and academic and career goals. All members and employees of ALCIVIA and their children attending four-year universities, two-year technical programs or short courses and high school seniors planning for post-secondary education were eligible to apply for the awards.
