Scholarship Fund

 

The Association of Food and Drug Officials of the Southern States (AFDOSS)  is a Regional Affiliate of the Associations of Food and Drug Officials (AFDO).  AFDO is an international nonprofit organization of individuals concerned with the development and enforcement of uniform food, drug, and other consumer protection laws.  Through resolutions, AFDOSS submits recommendations to the international association for suggested actions needed in the aforementioned areas.  The end result is the development of "model bills", the encouragement of training, and the overall implementation of sound and effective consumer protection regulation.

In 1999, AFDOSS established an annual scholarship fund for students entering their junior or senior year with monies being allocated to such by the AFDOSS Executive Board, contributions of companies and individuals, and grants obtained primarily from AFDO.  The scholarship is designed to be awarded to top students having demonstrated a desire to serve in a career of research, regulatory work, quality control, or teaching in an area related to some aspect of foods or drugs.  The recipient should have obvious leadership capabilities and must have at least a 2.5 grade average during the first two years of undergraduate study  The scholarship will be awarded to the selected person to attend a college or university that has curricula in the area of food and/or drug.
