Founded in 1947 as a trade organization named the Food Sales Association, it quickly became known as “FSA,” with its purpose to develop and enhance relationships between the suppliers, brokers, and manufactures in the food industry and the retailers within the North Texas market. In 1998 the Food Sales Association, in partnership with its members and retailers, began the FSA Scholarship Program. After seventeen years of FSA scholarship awards, a total of almost $1million dollars ($1,000,000) was been raised and awarded to 501 high school seniors and adults pursuing careers in the food retail industry. In June 2002, the organization received its determination letter and was recognized as public foundation and a 501(c)(03) under the Internal Revenue Code. It is organized as a corporation in the State of Texas. The 2014 FSA Board of Directors, inspired by those who worked tirelessly to build the organization and the scholarship program began to envision an educational leadership legacy to benefit the future young adults in the food industry in north Texas. On May 1, 2014, the Board unanimously voted to change the organization’s name to the FSA Scholarship Foundation to better describe its educational and philanthropic purpose and, to create the FSA Scholarship Foundation – Endowment Fund. Today, the FSA Scholarship Foundation represents over 250 organizations and 600 representatives from national, regional and local companies.
