Land Improvement Contractors of America-Missouri Chapter

Land Improvement Contractors of America-Missouri Chapter supports Missouri contractors connected to the Land Improvement Contractors of America and extends that support to their families through higher-education assistance. Its scholarship activity centers on the Missouri LICA Memorial Scholarship, a program tied directly to the chapter’s membership base in Missouri and designed for members who have maintained at least 5 years of LICA membership, along with eligible spouses, children, stepchildren, grandchildren, and step-grandchildren. The chapter’s education support reaches students attending or planning to attend an accredited college or university in any state, and it does not limit applicants by major. The scholarship is available for bachelor’s degree study and serves students ranging from high school seniors through college seniors. The award offers up to $1,000 and requires an essay, while not being structured as either a need-based or merit-based program. The Missouri chapter’s role is defined by service to a specific professional and family community in Missouri. Its scholarship framework shows a long-membership emphasis, a statewide contractor audience, and a practical commitment to helping members’ families pursue college education beyond Missouri’s borders when needed. The annual application cycle listed for the Missouri LICA Memorial Scholarship opens on March 1, 2026, and closes on September 1, 2026, giving eligible Missouri LICA households a defined window to seek support for undergraduate study. Through this memorial scholarship, the chapter connects its Missouri membership network with college access and educational continuity for the next generation.
