As part of FPL’s commitment to STEM education, eight South Florida students will each receive $20,000 toward their university studies
On July 8th, FPL made a few college-bound high schoolers very happy with their generous financial contribution!

The scholarship winners are:
- Abdul Joseph (Forest Hill Community High School, West Palm Beach)
