• 2025 FPMA Scholarship Application

    FPMA cares about the success of our members and their families. For over 40 years, we have granted academic scholarships exclusively to owners, employees and their children to attend college and become successors of the family business or entrepreneurs of their own.
    If you fall into this close-knit community and can show achievement in the classroom with a GPA of 3.5 or higher, you are at a great advantage. While most public and private scholarship dollars are open to thousands of eligible high school and college students, our support stays within the Florida Petroleum Marketers Association family.
