 The Thoroughbred Education and Research Foundation (TERF) is pleased to award $15,000 to Wilson College to further the education of its students.

With TERF’s continued assistance, Wilson College will be able to award scholarships this year in the areas of Veterinary Medical Technology, Animal Studies and Equine majors (Equestrian Studies, Equine-Facilitated Therapeutics, Equine Journalism). These scholarships will ensure that passionate students develop the skills necessary to create a bright future for the Thoroughbred.

TERF’s grants reflect the values set forth by founders Herb and Ellen Moelis during TERF’s 2013 inception. TERF’s current Board, includes co-Chairs Kathleen Anderson, DVM, and James Orsini, DVM, Margaret H.
