Eight Students Receive Dana Winkler Scholarships from Wichita Federal Credit Union
Eight students have been awarded $16,000 in scholarships by Wichita Federal Credit Union (WFCU). Each recipient received $2,000 to apply toward their post-secondary education tuition costs for the upcoming fall semester. This year, the scholarship award increased from $1,000 to $2,000. Since 2004, WFCU has awarded scholarships to encourage credit union members to pursue higher education. A total of 167 students have received over $159,000 in scholarship funds during this time. Candidates are credit union members selected by the scholarship committee based on their grade point averages, extracurricular activities, community service, career goals, and a written essay.
