NAG Scholarship Program

Apply Now

We all know the importance of a well-educated workforce and the c-store landscape is certainly no exception. The National Advisory Group (NAG) scholarship fund was developed to help qualified individuals offset some of these costs. Among NAG’s core mission is to help to cultivate and groom the convenience store leaders of tomorrow.

In keeping with that theme, NAG created this scholarship fund for employees and children of NAG member companies.

The Program
The NAG Scholarship Fund is managed by the NAG Board of Directors, Convenience Store Decisions and Scholarship America, and sponsored by the retailer and supplier members of NAG. This program was started in the late 1990’s and has distributed more than 125 scholarships totaling more nearly $125,000 to deserving students. The fund is financed through annual dues collections by NAG members and drives from golf outings and conference sponsorship allocations.

The 2021 NAG Scholarships were awarded to:

  • Harley Edwards, of Amarillo, Texas. Toot’n Totum
  • MaKenna Konkol, of Oconomowoc, Wis. Kwik Trip
  • MacKenzie Miller of Mohawk, N.Y. Cliff’s Local Market
  • Delia Morchesky, of Carrolltown, Pa. Sheetz

Eligibility
Applicants who work in the c-store industry must be employees or children of employees who have a minimum of one-year employment with a NAG member company. Applicants must plan to enroll in a full- or part-time undergraduate course of study at an accredited two- or four-year college, university or vocational-technical school. Applicants who are current students or who have attended school within the past three years must have maintained a minimum 2.5 GPA on a 4.0 scale.

The Awards
Due to the generous contributions of NAG’s dues-paying members, we have increased the number of winners to five and have a healthy scholarship fund to ensure the college-age children of NAG member companies will receive financial assistance to pursue their goals of becoming the leaders of tomorrow. The program utilizes standard Scholarship America recipient selection procedures, including past academic performance and future potential, leadership and participation in school and community activities, work experience and an outside appraisal.

All NAG member companies should take advantage of this program.
