Scholarships
AMTOPP’s Scholarship Program
Through the support of its members, AMTOPP offers scholarships to Montana 4-H Clubs, Future Farmers of America (FFA), and AMTOPP members.
The Scholarship program is funded through a raffle held during the annual conference.
Scholarships amounts are $1,000 each
We firmly believe that education and promotion of the Horticulture and Arboriculture Industry begin with our youth; learning and participating in the industry at home and in their communities.
If you know of a club or individual who could benefit from one of these scholarships, please let them know it is available.
4H
The 4-H Scholarship is awarded to the 4-H club/individual that has a beautification project involving landscape or arboriculture for their community.

- Install a native garden at a local city park in their community.
- Plant Aspen and Cottonwood trees on the creek bank of school grounds as an experiment to see if they would push out the Russian Olive trees.
- Create a spirit garden.
