Driving Agriculture Forward Scholarship
Truck drivers are critical for transporting farm commodities, inputs, and food throughout our state and nation. Without truck drivers, the entire supply chain breaks down. The Driving Agriculture Forward Scholarship Program, funded by the Illinois Farm Bureau, offsets the cost of required commercial truck driver training and ensures more well-trained, safe drivers are available to drive agriculture forward.
Five $1,000 awards will be available each cycle.
Future Enrollment Windows
Cycle Four: For applicants enrolling in driver training January 1 through March 31, 2025.
Deadline for consideration is December 31.
