Sarasota County Educational Foundation to Name Two Suncoast Credit Union Scholars in 2022

The coast of the gift

The Suncoast Credit Union Foundation is partnering with the Sarasota County Education Foundation to provide two $2,000 scholarships to high school graduates of the class of 2022. High school graduates of the class of 2022 from the service territory of 21 Suncoast Credit Union counties have the opportunity to apply for financial support to further their education, thanks to an investment of $116,000 in scholarships by the Tampa Credit Union Foundation. Applications are open through March 1 and are available at www.EdFoundationSRQ.org/SCUScholarship. This year’s Suncoast Credit Union Scholars program represents an ongoing philosophy of the foundation to support education initiatives and the well-being and potential of children. Since its creation in 1990, the Foundation has awarded more than $33 million, including more than $2.4 million in scholarships.

“We believe the best way to build better communities is to invest in education and health initiatives for children,” said Cindy Helton, CEO of the Suncoast Credit Union Foundation. “Through the Suncoast Credit Union Scholars program, we have the opportunity to invest in individual human potential, which is especially rewarding.”
