Annually ARSNA is proud to offer its Arkansas School Nutrition Association Scholarships. Scholarship funds are generated through the efforts of our members, including silent auctions, raffles, and cookbook sales. Winners will be awarded a sum of $1,000 to be applied towards their college tuition for the current school year.
