College of Agriculture and Natural Resources Alumni Association Scholarship Fund

At the College of Agriculture and Natural Resources, we prepare students for the careers of the future by creating world-class opportunities that extend far beyond the classroom. More than 3,000 students benefit from hands on learning experiences connecting academic instruction with real world applications.

Give to CANR Alumni Association Scholarship Fund and support grant funding for CANR student organizations.  

Gifts to the CANR Alumni Association Scholarship Fund fuel transformative experiential learning opportunities. Each year, this fund provides CANR students with direct financial assistance in the form of student club grants. These club grants support learning projects, like professional development conferences and workshops, community engagement initiatives and industry networking opportunities.

Thanks to a generous lead gift from our partners at Michigan Farm Bureau, we will match the first $5,000 in donations to this project 1:1, up to $250 per donor, doubling the impact of your gift. 

This fall, over $9,000 in student club grants were awarded to nine CANR student organizations. These grants ranged from $500–$2,500, supporting a variety of undergraduate and graduate initiatives. To date, the CANR Alumni Board has awarded nearly 250 student club grants, totaling more than $175,000 in funding. By reaching our campaign goal, your support will keep these grants available for CANR students today, and in the future.
