Congrats NCVA 2022 Scholarship Recipients!

The North Carolina Vending Association, the organization representing the vending and food service industry in the state, was formed in 1955 and is the oldest independent vending association in the nation. In an effort to contribute to the communities that have made the industry what it is, NCVA formed a scholarship.

TWO $1,500 scholarships, based on academics, character and financial need are awarded to two deserving students (student must be affiliated with or related to a person from the vending industry and a CURRENT Member of NCVA) from North Carolina each year.

A huge Congratulations to NCVA's 2022 Scholarship Recipients Emily Dills and Kadyn Anderson.

We wish you the best in your future endeavors!
