The Richard F. Heaney Memorial Scholarship Fund

Once again in 2006 the International Beverage Packaging Association (IBPA) through the Richard F. Heaney Memorial Scholarship Fund is making available scholarships of between $500 and $2,000 to juniors, seniors, and graduate students in packaging curriculums. We make these awards available to students who qualify under the above guidelines and who are citizens of the United States or Canada. Applicants should send an e-mail to the IBPA representatives listed below to request an application and submit their completed applications by October 6, 2006.

IBPA had its inception in the mid-1950’s and is a nonprofit corporation solely dedicated to the exchange of information and education pertaining to the packaging industry through meetings and seminars. Our membership includes major brewers and beverage manufacturers, along with packaging machinery, equipment and material suppliers.

The awards are based on grade point average overall and in packaging courses, financial need, extra curricular activities and the completed essay.

School administrators or students can post this notice in locations where they will get the most exposure. Feel free to copy and post as many as you believe will accomplish the task of notifying as many students as possible of the scholarship.
