 The ICF annually awards scholarships to outstanding
high school seniors in Illinois who demonstrate effective,
voluntary, long-term dedication to the preservation, protection or
enhancement of the state’s natural resources. Up to three
scholarships of $2,000 each are available for the current school
year.
"The ICF’s Conservation Achievement Scholarship program helps
further the education of young people who have shown interest in
being our future conservation leaders,” said Wayne Rosenthal,
chairman of the Illinois Conservation Foundation Board of Directors
and Director of the Illinois Department of Natural Resources. “The
scholarships help reward a commitment to natural resources
stewardship by students from throughout Illinois.”
