In 1979, several faculty, alumni and friends of the Jordan College of Agricultural Sciences and Technology had a million-dollar idea -- to start a foundation that would benefit, promote and support the college and its programs. The supporters set out to raise $1 million in endowed scholarships. Today, the Ag One Foundation has raised approximately $13 million in endowed funds.

Over the years, donors, board members and volunteers have made it possible to award some 3,100 students with over $2.3 million in scholarships and grants. For the 2009-2010 academic year, Ag One will provide $260,000 to deserving students and programs. For a complete list of endowments, click here.
