Scholarships

A+FCU is committed to supporting current and college-bound students thrive in their education with $2,000 scholarships.

Scholarship Program

We’re committed to helping A+FCU members in our communities improve their financial well-being. With deep roots in education, we understand the value a college degree can have – that’s why we award scholarships to hardworking high school and college students each year.

In 2025, we awarded 60 $2,000 scholarships to eligible high school and college students for the 2025-2026 school year.

This scholarship will in every way support my dreams of becoming a first-generation college student. I became a member at 15 years old, and I can’t say how grateful I am to have worked with A+FCU for so long. Their dedication to supporting young adults in the community allows students like me to dream big and achieve our goals!

This scholarship is more than financial assistance—it is a vote of confidence in my mission to transform bilingual education. It will grant me the opportunity to focus on groundbreaking research, amplify the voices of multilingual students, and ensure that every child’s language is seen as an asset rather than a challenge.
