Marine has given out more than $100,000 in scholarships to students over 20 years. Marine is committed to serving our members, investing in our communities and our people. Marine will begin accepting applications for the 2019 scholarships in November 2018. Scholarships are available to all Marine members and their children. Applications are reviewed by an independent committee comprised of non-staff members from a variety of Marine’s districts.
The Marine Credit Union Foundation sponsored an additional scholarship through the La Crosse Tribune’s Extra Effort A+ Achiever program. The recipient is Lupita Mendoza from Brookwood High School. She will be attending Western Technical College in the fall.
