Announcing the 2026 Scholarship Recipients

The Riceland Foods Foundation had our annual meeting in July, where we selected grant applicants for the 2026-2027 funding cycle.

By moving to an online application format, we have significantly improved our ability to track how these projects impact communities in the Riceland footprint. The Foundation board also voted on the candidates for the 2026-2027 Riceland Foundation Scholarship. For a second year in a row, the foundation received a record number of applications.

With the overwhelming number of applications and the quality of applicants, the Foundation board voted to fund 12 highly deserving students this year. This scholarship opportunity is reserved for family members of Riceland members and employees.
