Dr. Faviola Barbosa is named the new Executive Director of the Washington Apple Education Foundation following the retirement of long-time E.D. Jennifer Witherbee.
The Washington Apple Education Foundation scholarship application is currently open and available to students raised in tree fruit industry families with plans to attend college in the fall of 2022. Annually, WAEF awards over $1 million in scholarships on behalf of Washington’s tree fruit growers, packers, shippers and suppliers to college-bound and college-enrolled students. The application must be submitted in its entirety by March 1 for consideration.
