BELLBROOK — The Ohio Soybean Council Foundation recently announced that Reagan Saunders of Bellbrook has been awarded a $3,000 Ohio Soybean Council Foundation Scholarship for the 2025-26 academic year.
Saunders is a sophomore at The Ohio State University studying animal science-biosciences pre-vet. She is one of 15 students to receive a scholarship from the foundation.
This is the 18th year for the OSCF Scholarship Program, which was created to encourage undergraduate students to pursue degrees in various fields that support the future of the soybean industry, including agriculture, business, communication, economics, education, science, and technology, as well as to support ongoing graduate-level research. Since 2008, the OSCF Scholarship Program has awarded more than $680,000 in scholarship funds to students studying agriculture or a related field at Ohio colleges or universities.
“I’m honored to serve on the scholarship selection committee for the first time this year, and I am truly impressed by the caliber of these recipients,” said Jeff McKanna, Hancock County soybean farmer and scholarship selection committee member. “These students are the future of our industry, and I’m confident they will make meaningful contributions to its growth and success.”
