Romeoville, IL Abri Credit Union feels strongly about giving back to its members and the communities its serves. An important aspect of its giving back philosophy is the Abri Credit Union scholarship program that was established to recognize, reward and help make possible the pursuit of higher education by its members.
This year, two $1,000 scholarships were awarded--One to a graduating high school senior, one to a post-secondary education student. Scholarship applicants were required to submit a 60-second video/commercial that conveyed a clear, clever message of their financial knowledge on one of the following topics: 1.) The difference between a credit union and a bank. 2.) The difference between a debit card and a credit card. 3.) Wants versus needs. The videos were judged on the financial message.
