Empowering American Indian students – $10,000 in Agriculture Scholarships awarded at CWC

Central Wyoming College is proud to celebrate the accomplishments of four outstanding American Indian students who have been awarded the prestigious Wind River Development Fund Scholarships. These scholarships, totaling $10,000, are granted to American Indian students studying Agriculture, with each recipient receiving $2,500 toward their educational journey.

The recipients—Kalijah Day, Kaylee Cachlin, Jerel Kohler, and Grace Neubauer—were selected after submitting applications and securing faculty recommendations. Their hard work and dedication to their studies were recognized at a special ceremony where they were awarded their scholarships.

This scholarship not only provides financial support to these talented students but also highlights the growing partnership between CWC and the Wind River Development Fund. With the possibility of doubling the scholarship fund next year, this initiative continues to strengthen opportunities for American Indian students pursuing agriculture, supporting the next generation of leaders in this vital field.

CWC extends heartfelt congratulations to Kalijah, Kaylee, Jerel, and Grace, and looks forward to their future successes!
