Andrews Federal Increases Top Scholarship Award to $7,500 in Honor of the Credit Union’s 75th Anniversary
Andrews Federal announced the launch of its 2023 college scholarship and summer camp award programs, including special awards in commemoration of the credit union’s 75 years of service.
This year, Andrews Federal will provide ten $2,000 college scholarships to members or their immediate family. The credit union will also provide one winner with a $7,500 scholarship as part of the credit union’s yearlong celebration of 75 years of service.
“Our scholarship program emphasizes our dedication to supporting education and investing in the future,” said Damita Robinson, Chief Operations Officer for Andrews Federal Credit Union. “As we celebrate the legacy Andrews Federal has built over the past 75 years, the scholarship program will continue to build on our longtime commitment to serving and giving back to our communities.”
The credit union also offers a summer camp award program to parents of school-age children. Through this program, ten winners will receive a $500 summer camp award and one winner will receive a $750 summer camp award. According to credit union leadership, this program aligns with Andrews Federal’s commitment to supporting the financial needs of working parents, alongside its childcare subsidy program for employees. “We recognize that childcare is among the largest expenses most families face,” Robinson said. “Through the summer camp award program, we can make summer more memorable for children while at the same time alleviating some financial burdens for their parents.”
