“The T.D. 4-H Agriculture Scholarship invests directly in the future of agriculture and agribusiness in Canada. We believe strongly in supporting the development of our greatest asset – our youth,” said Marie Logan, president of the Canadian 4-H Council.
“The T.D. Bank Financial Group is committed to supporting the education of our youth, and we are delighted to once again offer this scholarship,” said Matthew Holden, the Manager of Agriculture Credit Products with T.D. Canada Trust. “We know that 4-H members make significant contributions to agriculture in this country and we are very pleased to give these students assistance in reaching their academic goals.”
