People Helping People Scholarships
About the Scholarships
As a not-for-profit credit union, we were founded on the belief that everyone deserves opportunities to achieve a brighter financial future. We also believe that knowledge increases your earning potential and gives you the power to make the most out of your money. This is why we have created the “People Helping People” Scholarship program that helps reduce the financial burden of pursuing postsecondary education.
In 2025, EIFCU will award a $1,500 scholarship to one high school senior and a $1,500 scholarship to one continuing education student. The scholarship may be used by a student pursuing either an undergraduate degree or a certification at an accredited college/university/trade school.
