A principios de este oto\u00f1o, la gerente de programas de AFE, Candice Musgrove, y miembros del Comit\u00e9 Vic & Margaret Ball tuvieron la oportunidad de visitar la Escuela de Dise\u00f1o Floral Benz de la Universidad Texas A&M, uno de los muchos programas respaldados a trav\u00e9s de la AFE Subvenci\u00f3n de Dise\u00f1o Floral James & Helen Phillip<\/strong><\/a> La visita ofreci\u00f3 una visi\u00f3n de primera mano de c\u00f3mo la financiaci\u00f3n educativa de AFE est\u00e1 ayudando a los estudiantes a desarrollar sus habilidades, perseguir sus pasiones y construir futuros significativos en la industria floral.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fundada por M. Buddy Benz, la Escuela Benz se cimenta en un legado de excelencia en la educaci\u00f3n sobre dise\u00f1o floral. Su plan de estudios enfatiza tanto la expresi\u00f3n art\u00edstica como la visi\u00f3n para los negocios, ense\u00f1ando a los estudiantes los elementos y principios del dise\u00f1o junto con habilidades esenciales en gesti\u00f3n minorista, coordinaci\u00f3n de eventos y esp\u00edritu empresarial. Bajo el liderazgo de la Sra. Wendy Osburn, una educadora apasionada con m\u00e1s de 30 a\u00f1os de experiencia docente, el programa contin\u00faa inspirando a los estudiantes a combinar la creatividad con el profesionalismo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cCada estudiante trae su propia historia y raz\u00f3n para dedicarse al dise\u00f1o floral\u201d,\u201d<\/strong> dijo Osburn. \u201cNuestro objetivo es darles las herramientas, el conocimiento y la confianza para convertir esa pasi\u00f3n en una carrera para toda la vida.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

El equipo de AFE se reuni\u00f3 con varios estudiantes que se benefician directamente de la beca James & Helen Phillip Scholarship Grant, incluidos Mackenzie Ceballos<\/strong>, Emileigh Rodabaugh<\/strong>, y Ashley Taylor<\/strong> \u2013 cada uno cursando estudios en horticultura y obteniendo certificaciones en dise\u00f1o floral. Su entusiasmo por el oficio y su compromiso con el avance de la industria fueron evidentes durante toda la visita.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Para Mackenzie, el dise\u00f1o floral comenz\u00f3 como una v\u00eda creativa en la escuela secundaria y desde entonces se ha convertido en una vocaci\u00f3n profesional. Emileigh, profundamente involucrada en el Instituto Americano de Dise\u00f1adores Florales Estudiantiles (SAIFD, por sus siglas en ingl\u00e9s), comparti\u00f3 c\u00f3mo la beca la ayud\u00f3 a adquirir experiencia pr\u00e1ctica a trav\u00e9s de concursos e investigaci\u00f3n. Ashley, que ahora se desempe\u00f1a como Oficial de Alcance de SAIFD, ya est\u00e1 utilizando sus habilidades para llevar el arte floral a su comunidad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sus historias ejemplifican c\u00f3mo las becas educativas de AFE est\u00e1n moldeando a la pr\u00f3xima generaci\u00f3n de l\u00edderes florales: haciendo que la educaci\u00f3n sea m\u00e1s accesible, fomentando el talento y garantizando que los estudiantes tengan la oportunidad de prosperar en un campo en crecimiento y evoluci\u00f3n.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Este a\u00f1o, Mackenzie, Emileigh y Ashley tambi\u00e9n se unieron a AFE Consejo de J\u00f3venes Profesionales<\/strong><\/a> <\/strong>(YPC, por sus siglas en ingl\u00e9s), que celebra su 10.\u00ba aniversario en 2025. Establecido en 2015, el YPC ofrece oportunidades gratuitas para que los j\u00f3venes miembros de la industria se conecten, crezcan y participen a trav\u00e9s de actividades de liderazgo, creaci\u00f3n de redes y voluntariado. Los miembros del YPC participan en reuniones, seminarios web y eventos que fomentan la colaboraci\u00f3n y el desarrollo profesional en las industrias floral y hort\u00edcola.

Visitas como esta subrayan la misi\u00f3n de AFE de invertir en educaci\u00f3n, investigaci\u00f3n y desarrollo en todos los segmentos de la industria floral. Al apoyar a instituciones como la Escuela de Dise\u00f1o Floral Benz, AFE garantiza que el arte, la ciencia y el negocio de las flores sigan floreciendo, un estudiante a la vez.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

El Dise\u00f1o Floral de James & Helen Phillip Gran<\/a><\/strong>t<\/strong><\/a> Fue creado en 2008 por Lee Phillip Bell para rendir homenaje a sus padres y apoyar a los aspirantes a dise\u00f1adores florales. A trav\u00e9s de una dotaci\u00f3n de $500 000, el Fondo concede subvenciones anuales a instituciones con programas consolidados de dise\u00f1o floral, principalmente en la regi\u00f3n de los Grandes Lagos, aunque tambi\u00e9n se extiende a centros como la Universidad Texas A&M, que demuestran un compromiso excepcional con la formaci\u00f3n en el \u00e1mbito floral. Estas subvenciones ofrecen una ayuda vital para el pago de la matr\u00edcula y contribuyen a que los programas ampl\u00eden su alcance a m\u00e1s estudiantes de todo el pa\u00eds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
