BPUB is a community-owned utility dedicated to developing local talent and supporting the next generation of leaders. After selecting scholarship recipients, we send checks directly to students to assist with their educational expenses. This scholarship can help cover tuition, moving expenses, books, laptops, and other education-related costs.
