The Five Star Credit Union Foundation recently created a scholarship program to benefit SRTC students in their service delivery area. The Five Star Credit Union Foundation is a community resource for financial training, to support programs for kids to succeed, and for communities to have a place to turn for help. Being a community leader is much more than offering financial services. The Five Star Credit Union Foundation is a leader in helping its communities move forward. For this fall semester, Sam Brinkley and Laura Maxwell each received a $5,000 Five Star Credit Union Scholarship, which will follow the students through completion of their chosen program.
