Due Date: Betsy Norum Award

The $500 Betsy Norum is awarded annually to a student majoring in a Family and Consumer Sciences program at their university. Members of the AAFCS Community of Lifelong Professionals realize that undergraduate student members of AAFCS may have financial constraints that prevent them from attending the AAFCS Annual Conference and Expo. The contacts, content, and stimulation derived from the wide variety of programs and activities offered provide important experiences for the pre-professional majoring in one of the varied areas encompassed by Family and Consumer Sciences. This subsidy is offered to give a financial boost to such a student. This subsidy has been given annually since 1995 in memory of Betsy Norum, Minnesota, National Home and Community (now Community of Lifelong Professionals) Chair, 1968-70.
