2008 Scholarship Program

The Board of Directors of Beacon Credit Union has announced that eight (8) $500.00 student scholarships will be available to members or their children. The scholarship program is targeted to financially assist students entering their freshman or sophomore year of college in furthering their education. Applications and a complete explanation of the program are available on the web and at any of our Beacon Credit Union locations.

Students will be required to submit a 200-300 word essay based on the following question:

All essays will be judged on accuracy, creativity, attention to detail and organization. Each participant will also be required to complete an application and provide a transcript of their most recent semester in school. Finally, all entries should be postmarked no later than March 31, 2008 and submitted to:
