Larry Foster Scholarship

Agribusiness Council of Indiana (ACI)

This award is for a graduating high school senior or a college undergraduate. The applicant's parent or guardian must be an employee of an ACI member company in order to qualify for this scholarship.

Larry Foster worked as a fertilizer salesman for several companies during his career, including Chevron, W.R. Grace and Erny's (now the Andersons at Walton). Larry was involved in a serious car accident, and Bob Wyatt, who was then-chair of the Indiana Plant Food and Ag Chemicals Association (1979-80), initiated a fund in the association to help with Larry's medical expenses. Larry eventually went back to work and the assistance fund was transformed into the Larry Foster Scholarship Fund.
