Nos enorgullece compartir que una de nuestras becas de larga trayectoria ha sido rebautizada en honor a Frank Biddle, un l\u00edder extraordinario, mentor y amigo para muchos en nuestra industria.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Desde 2017, la beca CalFlowers ha apoyado a estudiantes con pasi\u00f3n por la industria floral. Hoy, lleva un nuevo nombre, el Beca Conmemorativa Frank Biddle de CalFlowers<\/strong>, asegurando que el legado de tutor\u00eda e innovaci\u00f3n de Frank contin\u00fae inspirando a la pr\u00f3xima generaci\u00f3n.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Invirtiendo en l\u00edderes del futuro<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Esta beca proporciona un apoyo fundamental a los estudiantes universitarios que cursan estudios superiores y una carrera en floricultura. Aunque se da prioridad a los estudiantes que asisten a colegios y universidades acreditados en California, tambi\u00e9n se consideran los residentes de California matriculados en otras partes de los EE. UU.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Los solicitantes no tienen que especializarse en agricultura, pero s\u00ed deben demostrar un compromiso claro de ingresar a la industria floral despu\u00e9s de graduarse. Para aquellos fuera de los programas agr\u00edcolas, se requiere un historial laboral o una pasant\u00eda significativa en floricultura, y los beneficiarios deben mantener un promedio de calificaciones (GPA) de 3.0 o superior.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

El propio Frank fue un defensor de la educaci\u00f3n y la tutor\u00eda, y siempre alentaba a los j\u00f3venes profesionales a crecer y prosperar. Esta beca garantiza que su pasi\u00f3n perdure a trav\u00e9s de cada estudiante al que apoya.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Un legado duradero<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Frank Biddle era mucho m\u00e1s que un empresario; era un visionario cuyas ideas transformaron la forma en que las flores se trasladan de las granjas a los clientes. Como fundador de Dos Gringos, Francis Biddle International (FBI Flowers) y Tradewinds Intl., Frank reconfigur\u00f3 las cadenas de suministro en todas las Am\u00e9ricas, haciendo que las flores frescas sean m\u00e1s accesibles que nunca.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tambi\u00e9n fue un querido l\u00edder dentro de CalFlowers, habiendo servido como expresidente y miembro de la junta directiva durante mucho tiempo. Su esp\u00edritu empresarial, generosidad e incansable empuje dejaron una huella indeleble no solo en CalFlowers, sino en toda la industria floral. Frank falleci\u00f3 pac\u00edficamente el 27 de junio de 2025, a la edad de 60 a\u00f1os, pero su influencia sigue resonando en la industria que ayud\u00f3 a moldear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Como comparti\u00f3 Lane DeVries, director ejecutivo de CalFlowers:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cFrank fue fundamental en promover la creaci\u00f3n de la beca mientras estuvo en la Junta Directiva de CalFlowers. \u00c9l cre\u00eda en apoyar a AFE y en empoderar a la pr\u00f3xima generaci\u00f3n. Renombrar el fondo honra su legado y contin\u00faa su impacto en nuestra industria.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Continuando su impacto<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A trav\u00e9s de la beca CalFlowers Frank Biddle Memorial Scholarship, el legado de Frank apoyar\u00e1 a estudiantes que, al igual que \u00e9l, aportan ideas audaces y una energ\u00eda incansable a nuestro campo. Es un recordatorio de que la visi\u00f3n y la generosidad de una sola persona pueden crear oportunidades para muchas otras.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Estamos profundamente agradecidos con CalFlowers y con todos nuestros socios que apoyan las becas, las pasant\u00edas y el desarrollo de j\u00f3venes profesionales. Juntos, aseguramos que nuestra industria contin\u00fae floreciendo y que l\u00edderes como Frank inspiren a las generaciones venideras.<\/p>","protected":false},"template":"","news-categories":[32,31,48,29,49],"class_list":["post-23242","news","type-news","status-publish","hentry","news-categories-donors","news-categories-latest-news","news-categories-memorials","news-categories-news","news-categories-scholarship"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nHonoring Frank Biddle Through the CalFlowers Scholarship -
