MEMBER SUPPORT

Funding each scholarship is made possible by Chapter Sponsorships, Donations and Fundraisers such as it’s annual Golf Tournament & Sporting Clays Event. We believe the Scholarship Program is truly one of our chapter’s most important and most visible means of encouraging and attracting bright, industrious young technical talent to our local gas processing industry.

Over the course of the __ years that ABGPA has been providing scholarships they have granted more than $____,000 in scholarships, and assisted over _____ students in their academic efforts. Our goal is to continue to give more. To accomplish that goal we need your help. Every event that we hold will be aimed at bringing in money to give back to our scholarship fund, so your participation in the local ABGPA Events and/or Sponsorships/Donations are essential to our success!
