California Credit Union Foundation Awards Scholarships to 20 Students
Twenty students across Los Angeles and Orange counties have each received a $1,000 scholarship from the California Credit Union Foundation. The annual awards recognize academic achievement, leadership, and a demonstrated commitment to community service, supporting the next generation as they transition to higher education this fall.
Since its inception in 2005, the scholarship program has distributed more than $485,000 to students throughout Southern California, including residents of San Diego, Riverside, and Ventura counties. The foundation operates as a non-profit, with all administrative costs covered by the parent credit union to ensure that 100% of donations are directed toward educational and community initiatives.
