TRAVEL GRANT APPLICATION
FOR THE EVENT AT REBECCA FARM
AVAILABLE THROUGH THE GENEROSITY OF:
THE BROUSSARD FAMILY CHARITABLE FOUNDATION
This Travel Grant is specifically designed to assist those competitors in the 3* and 4* FEI divisions who plan to apply for the Rebecca Broussard International Developing Rider Grant. The funds are to offset the transportation expenses to help riders compete at The Event at Rebecca Farm held in Kalispell, Montana. The funds will be distributed by the USEA Foundation through the generous support of The Broussard Family Charitable Foundation in honor of Rebecca Chaney Broussard. In the past, these grants have generally been based on mileage.
GUIDELINES
The Event at Rebecca Farm Travel Grant application must be in the USEA office on or before June 1st.
The Event at Rebecca Farm Travel Grant recipients will be notified of the awards by June 15th.
The Travel Grant application must be completed and include your travel financial plan towards attending and competing at The Event at Rebecca Farm at the CCI3*, and/or CCI4* levels.
Once the recipients of the Travel Grants and award amounts are determined, and necessary tax forms are received by the USEA, the funds will be released by the USEA Foundation. The Committee will rely on the good faith of recipients that these monies will be used as intended for travel to The Event at Rebecca Farm.
It is strongly recommended that potential Rebecca Broussard International Developing Rider Grant recipients attend the USEA Annual Meeting and Convention, not only because of the potential to win an award and receive it in person, but also to demonstrate active participation in the direction and leadership of the Association and the sport as a whole, a critical factor considered by the Grant Committee in evaluating applications for the Rebecca Broussard International Developing Rider Grant.
