     Marianna, FL- The Florida Peanut Producers Association is pleased to announce the

 opening of their 2018 Scholarship Award Program, effective April 1, 2018.

    Two $1,200 scholarships will be awarded to deserving high school seniors and/or college students.  The applicant or someone in the applicant’s family must be an actively producing

peanut grower, not necessarily a member of the FPPA.

 Each winner will receive $600 when the scholarship winners are announced.  The

 remaining $600 will be awarded after the completion of one semester and

documentation of passing grades is submitted to the FPPA Office.

 “The Florida Peanut Producers Association is committed to helping further the

education of young people in Florida and the scholarship program is evidence of our

commitment,” said Ken Barton, Executive Director of the FPPA.

 “The FPPA welcomes all applicants.  The final selection will be made by the committee

 and all applicants will be notified by mail, as will the scholarship winners,” said Barton.
