The Teri Bell Scholarship is offered by the Bell family in honor of Teri’s commitment to 4-H. The scholarship is designed to support 4-H youth who are taking a livestock or horse project. The application is open to all 4-H and FFA members in the following projects:
- Horse
- Market Swine
- Market Sheep
- Market Beef
- Market Goat
All applications must be handwritten by the youth applying. Teri was a longtime supporter of 4-H, and we’re glad the family chose to remember her with a great innovative scholarship. The age of the applicant will be taken into consideration when evaluating responses.
Instructions
We encourage parents (or another support person) to discuss the questions and help the applicant reason through the answers. Again, answers must be handwritten by the applicant. Typed applications will not be considered.
Please answer the following questions on paper and attach them to a cover sheet with applicant’s full name and date of birth.
- What project do you plan to complete with this assistance?
- How do you think completing this project will benefit you?
- What are some things you can learn from the experience of this project?
- Why do you think 4-H or FFA is important?
- Why do you think this project is important?
- Please give a brief explanation of expenses you anticipate, the support you will have (family, friends, etc.), and your plan for housing, caring for, and developing this project.
- In a few sentences, tell us a bit about yourself and some of your interests outside of 4-H/FFA.
