TAF&E's commitment to youth is best demonstrated through its scholarship program. Fair/event members of the association can nominate a student for possible selection as one of ten annual recipients of a $2,000 scholarship. Funds for this program are raised by the association through its silent and live auctions at the TAF&E Annual Convention. Click below to download a scholarship application form and rules.
