Stan and Mary Stark Alumni Scholarship​

Stan and Mary Stark Alumni Scholarship

The Stan and Mary Stark Alumni Scholarship, named after them in 2016, is available to any youth (age 15-22) who have already attended one convention and are planning on returning to
the convention to expand their knowledge within NJHA.  Stan and Mary Stark started this scholarship in 2005 by sponsoring the first youth to attend the convention based on financial burdens.

The NJHA Alumni continued the scholarship that Stan and Mary Stark began by holding an annual Alumni Auction in 2006 to continue to fund the scholarship and other award money for NJHA convention contests.   The Alumni Association may award up to three qualified applicants a scholarship to cover the cost of registration for the current year’s convention. 
 
Please include the following information in your application:
  • Letter of support/recommendation from an NJHA leader in your state
  • Resume from the applicant

        a). NJHA Involvement
        b). Involvement in 4-H, FFA or anything related to agriculture
        c). Information about yourself – things you have involved with at school, work, etc.
        d). Financial needs​
