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 more than $16 million in endowed funds.
Over the years, donors, board members and volunteers have made it possible to award some 3,250 students with more than $2.3 million in scholarships and grants.
For the 2013-2014 academic year, Ag One will provide nearly $500,000 to deserving students and programs.
Upcoming Events:
- March 14, 2014 – Community Salute honoring John P. “Phil” Larson, Fresno Convention Center
