Riverine Plains launches John Hanrahan Scholarship

Riverine Plains Inc recently launched the John Hanrahan Scholarship at an Agribusiness Dinner at Corowa.  
 
This new Scholarship is named in honour of John Hanrahan, a successful and respected farmer from Coreen who passed away in 2014. The Scholarship aims to recognise and encourage agricultural excellence in the Riverine Plains region through the support of a local second year student in their agriculture/agribusiness bachelor or diploma degree studies.
 
The trustees of the Scholarship Fund are also seeking to raise additional funds so the Scholarship can continue in perpetuity, and invite members of the community to consider making a tax deductable donation to the Scholarship Fund.
 
Applications for the John Hanrahan Scholarship will open on 1 July and close on 31 August, 2018, with details available in the coming months from www.riverineplains.org.au.
