Pest Management Foundation Introduces New Endowed Scholarship Program

The Pest Management Foundation launched a brand-new Endowed Scholarship program at PestWorld 2022. Donors can establish an Endowed Scholarship named to honor an individual, association, or company. Upon establishment of each scholarship, the Foundation will promote, administer, and grant a $1,000 award to a student meeting the donor’s criteria every year in perpetuity. Scholarship names and criteria are flexible and can be customized by the donor. The minimum gift to establish an Endowed Scholarship is $25,000. Endowment gifts can be paid as a single donation, or over a five-year period.

“Endowed scholarships are an attractive way to create a lasting legacy to honor individuals or companies, while benefitting outstanding students pursuing their education”, said Jim Fredericks, the Pest Management Foundation’s Executive Director. He added, “The ability to spread the donation over five years makes it an accessible way to make a lasting impact”. Companies interested in establishing an endowed scholarship, should contact Dr. Jim Fredericks at jfredericks@pestworld.org.
