The scholarship committee is pleased to announce the 2024 AABE Florida/Duke Energy Foundation Collegiate Scholarship application is now available.  If you or your network know of a Sophomore-Senior college/university students that are majoring in business, one of the physical sciences, technology, engineering, or mathematics, please encourage them to apply.  All applications must be submitted by the deadline which is Friday, December 20th, 2024. 

Please download the application for further details including eligibility.

The purpose of the AABE-FL/Duke Energy Foundation Collegiate Scholarship is to assist African American, Hispanic and Native American students with the cost of pursuing a bachelor’s degree in energy-related fields at an accredited college or university within the state of Florida.

The AABE-FL/Duke Energy Foundation Collegiate scholarship rewards collegiate students who reside or attend a higher institution within Duke Energy Florida’s service territory.

A motivating force behind what we do is purposefully investing in our future.  Our investments come full circle when many of the students we support go on to work in the energy industry, and those companies, like Duke Energy in this instance, gain skilled workers trained to meet the demands of a modern workforce.
