The 2024 First Harvest Scholarship program is now closed.
2024 Scholarship Program
This year, we awarded six graduating high school senior members each with a $2,000 scholarship to use towards the cost of tuition. The 2024 Scholarship Committee selected the recipients based on scholarly merit, community involvement, and an essay sharing how they feel our credit union can better serve younger members.
