The NSBA Foundation sponsors an annual award developed to recognize volunteerism in our youth. If you know someone who goes above and beyond the call of duty to help others, then this award is designed for them. 

The Foundation Annual Report contains complete statistics for 2018 scholarships and grants, a list of American Quarter Horse Hall of Fame inductees, a list of Foundation donors, financial statements and other information about programs and services.

Last year, exhibitors at the Youth World Show won more than $250,000 in cash and prizes, including $130,000 in scholarships. Those prizes aren’t limited to the top two winners, either—scholarships are paid out through third place in all world championships, with select classes paying to more placings. Random-draw $150 scholarships further sweeten the pot … you never know if you’re going to win! If that’s not enough, a variety of prizes are awarded in each class, including beautiful Gist Silversmith’s trophy buckles, Cinch jackets and prizes from SmartPak, Schneiders, LubriSyn and more. It’s time to get awarded for all the practice and work that you put in with your Paint Horse!
