Manitoba Crop Alliance awards 2024-25 high school bursaries

Manitoba Crop Alliance (MCA) has awarded six graduating high school students from Manitoba with bursaries valued at $1,000 each. The six bursary recipients are Rylan Wubbe from La Riviere, Peyton Tolton from Kenton, Caroline Anne McConnell from Cromer, Taylor Unrau from Douglas, Dane Bergen from Carman, and Elizabeth Woodason from Erickson.

“I’d like to congratulate this year’s high school bursary recipients and wish them all the best as they continue their education,” says MCA chair Jonothan Hodson. “MCA is proud to support agriculture’s next generation, and I can’t wait to see these promising, young individuals make their mark on our industry.”

MCA established these bursaries to assist graduating high school students within the province of Manitoba who are planning on continuing their education at a Canadian college or university in a field that will benefit the agriculture sector. MCA also awards annual bursaries valued at $2,000 each to post-secondary students enrolled in agricultural programs within the province of Manitoba. The application period for 2025-26 post-secondary bursaries will open in October.
