This year’s scholarship recipients have proven to be hardworking, committed, and passionate. It’s an honor to invest in their future, and we wish them continued personal and academic success.

“This year’s scholarship recipients have proven to be hardworking, committed, and passionate,” Terry Lord, A+FCU Board Member and Chair of the Scholarship Committee, said. “It’s an honor to invest in their future, and we wish them continued personal and academic success.”

The 60 recipients were selected for their academic achievements and community involvement and represent seven universities and 33 high schools.

“This scholarship will help to alleviate some of the financial stress along my journey pursuing an engineering degree,” Chloe Cano, who’s attending Trinity University as an engineering major in Fall 2023, said. “I will now be able to focus solely on my academic work in college. Thank you for this opportunity.”
