Premier Members Credit Union (PMCU) intends to make paying for college a little easier for high school seniors seeking higher education. This year, PMCU’s Premier Scholarship has reached $47,500.
Now thru May 10, Colorado students can apply online at pmcu.org to receive one of two $5,000 scholarships that can be applied towards a traditional four-year university, two-year college or trade school. Students may also apply for the Premier Scholarship from one of PMCU’s partner agencies. These agencies include: Realities for Children of Boulder County, Impact on Education, Westminster Public Schools Foundation, Hide in Plain Sight and The Hope House.
“We are proud to offer our annual Premier Scholarship to students seeking higher education,” said Andrea Balazs, Corporate Social Responsibility Coordinator. “Our hope is to provide traditional and non-traditional students with the opportunity to pursue higher education.”
Since 2012, PMCU has rewarded more than $140,000 in scholarships, and provided four four-year scholarships to serve underprivileged youth. The scholarship has grown from $4,000 in 2012 to $47,500 in 2019.
