Arbor Financial Credit Union is pleased to announce the winners of the 2025 Arbor Financial Scholarship Program.
Arbor Financial Credit Union is dedicated to our membership and the community we serve. Since 1935, our credit union has been empowering members to help them grow and achieve their financial goals. We began our scholarship program in 1999 and have since awarded $612,000 to students in our community throughout the years.
This year, ten high school seniors were awarded $2,000 from the Arbor Financial Scholarship based in large part upon an essay they submitted for the topic, "Describe a time when you used creativity to solve a problem or overcome a challenge. How did your creative approach lead to a successful outcome, and what did you learn from the experience?" Selected from among 103 entries, Arbor Financial is proud to announce the following winners of the 2025 Arbor Financial Scholarship:
