January 10, 2017
To create financial wellness in our communities through personal everyday banking.
Jackson, MI - American 1 Credit Union is pleased to offer several scholarships valued at $1,000 each to Michigan high school seniors through their annual Community Involvement Scholarship Program.
Each student who applies for the scholarship will submit an essay, in 1,500 words or less, on the benefits of altruism and how the student has impacted his or her community through their involvement. Scholarships are funded through American 1’s Skip-a-Pay program, where credit union members can choose to skip one month’s loan payment for $25. That $25 helps to fund the scholarship program.
Scholarship applications are available online at www.american1cu.org by selecting “Giving Back” under the “About Us” tab. The application deadline is Friday, March 3, 2017.
