For immediate release  
 High school seniors who support hunting offered local, national scholarships  

​SIERRA VISTA, Ariz. (NOV. 2, 2023) — High school seniors who support hunting are invited to apply for scholarships offered through the National Wild Turkey Federation (NWTF).
 
One $1,000 Local Huachuca Gould’s Chapter (HGC) scholarship, one State scholarship ($2,000), and one National scholarship ($10,000) are available. All 2024 graduating seniors are eligible to apply. 
 
The scholarship opportunities are available to high school seniors (public, private, charter or home schooled), who plan to attend an institution of higher learning during the 2024/25 school year. This can be a junior college, community college, technical college, college or university.  
 
Application for the scholarships must be completed and submitted directly online by Feb. 1, 2024 at  https://your.nwtf.org/scholarships. Only one application is needed for consideration of scholarships at all levels. The top, $10,000 scholarship is offered through the NWTF’s Dr. James Earl Kennamer Scholarship Program and is sponsored by Mossy Oak.  
 
All applications received by NWTF online will first be judged at Local/State levels where Local and State winners will be selected. Cochise County seniors will be considered for the local $1,000 scholarship offered by HGC. The State winner’s application will then be judged at the National level. A potential total of $13,000 in scholarship funds is available to the National winner through a single application submission.  
 
Applicants for each scholarship must support the preservation of the hunting tradition, possess a valid hunting license and be a member of the NWTF JAKES (Juniors Acquiring Knowledge, Education and Sportsmanship) program or adult program. Memberships are $10 for those under 18, and $35 for those 18 and older. To join, go to www.nwtf.org.  
 
Students are judged on their scholastic achievements, leadership abilities, community involvement, demonstrated commitment to conservation and letters of reference from community leaders.  
  
The NWTF is a national nonprofit conservation organization that was founded in 1973 and has worked with wildlife agencies to restore wild turkey populations from 1.3 million wild turkeys to more than 7 million today. Now, NWTF’s volunteers raise funds and work daily to improve critical wildlife habitat, increase access to public hunting land and introduce new people to the outdoors and hunting. The NWTF is committed to tackling the challenges facing the sporting community through its “Save the Habitat. Save the Hunt.” initiative by conserving and enhancing 4 million acres of wildlife habitat, creating 1.5 million new hunters and opening 500,000 new acres to public hunting.  
 
The local Huachuca Gould’s Chapter of NWTF supports Cochise County. The Huachuca Gould’s website contains information about all activities in which the organization is involved. Feel free to visit it often and to learn about activities that may interest you. Programs are available for men, women, youth, mobility challenged, and those with other special needs. For more information about local NWTF activities, or to learn how to join, visit http://www.nwtfhuagoulds.org/.
