The NE PA Community FCU Foundation presented $1,500 educational awards to applicants Jacob, Michael, Nicole, and Viviana. Award winners were selected based on criteria including financial need, academics, and community service. Awards were presented on July 17, 2025, during a ceremony held at UECU’s Stroudsburg office.
NE PA Community FCU Foundation is an independent philanthropic organization, separate from the Credit Union, but sharing the Credit Union philosophy of “People Helping People.” This Foundation’s mission is to “promote and support the educational goals of students from Monroe and Pike Counties, Pennsylvania, through financial assistance for their post-secondary education.”
The Foundation will make available educational awards to in-school students, as well as graduated students repaying educational loans. Each year, the Foundation will give away at least three (3) Educational Awards for at least $1,500.00 each. Both members and non-members of the Credit Union are eligible to apply for, and to receive educational awards through this philanthropy.
The application window for 2026 Educational Awards is now closed. We encourage you to apply next year for 2027 Awards.
