NPGF SCHOLARSHIP





         The 2020/2021 National Propane Gas Foundation (NPGF) Scholarship application opens on
         9/15/2019, and the submission deadline is 2/15/2020! Please help me promote this pro-
         gram.

         Click here for the link to the “NPGF Online Application” or find it under the “Apply Online” heading on the
         NPGF Scholarship web page at www.npga.org/scholarship. Marketing ideas include putting a link to the appli-
         cation on your web site, emailing a flyer, posting an announcement at a meeting.
         NPGF’s program offers $1,000 and $2,000 undergraduate college and technical, trade and vocational school
         awards for children of employees of NPGA member companies and state propane gas associations. Only one
         application is needed to be considered for its 88 awards in the 2020/2021 academic year.
             1.  In the continuing effort of keeping our expenses down we no longer print and mail brochures or flyers.
                All marketing materials can be found on the NPGA’s Scholarship website under the “Promotion Mate-
                rials” heading to help announce that $121,000 in 2020/2021 NPGF awards will be bestowed.

             2.  Applicants will need their parent’s NPGA member ID to apply. Email info@npga.org and insert in the
                Subject line, “NPGA Member Number Request.” In the body of the email, insert the following:
                              Applicant’s Full Name
                                Parent’s Full Name

                continue to offer $1,000 scholarships to applicants attending accredited vocational, trade or technical
                schools pursuing these propane-related fields:
