The announcement was made during American Floral Endowment’s annual Fundraising Dinner this past September.

The American Floral Endowment recently awarded scholarships totaling more than $37,000 to 17 undergraduate and graduate students across the country. The scholarships are intended for students pursuing degrees in floriculture and horticultural fields.

The program offers a chance for floriculture companies to host an intern and help enthusiastic students contribute to both the organization and the floral industry.
