EARLY – Central Texas Farm Credit is proud to announce its 2026 Scholarship recipients, recognizing outstanding high school seniors from across our territory who are pursuing post-secondary education and building strong futures for rural communities.

This year, Central Texas Farm Credit awarded 5 scholarships totaling $10,000 to graduating seniors. The recipients were selected based on academic achievement, leadership, community involvement, and a demonstrated commitment to rural life.

In addition, each scholarship recipient was given the opportunity to select an FFA chapter or 4-H club of their choice to receive a $500 donation. This added recognition was created to celebrate the mentors and organizations that supported these students along the way.

“At Central Texas Farm Credit, investing in young people is one of the most meaningful ways we can support the future of agriculture and the communities we serve,” said Zach May, CEO. “These students have already shown dedication, character, and drive, and we are excited to support them as they take the next step in their education.”
