The MC Federal Credit Union Scholarship Program was established to provide educational funds for members. MC Federal awards two $1,000 scholarships each year to high school seniors or continuing higher education students. In order to qualify for consideration in the program, applicants must be current members of MC Federal Credit Union in good standing with a minimum 3.0 cumulative GPA. The MC Federal Scholarship Selection Committee then chooses winners based on their submitted 200-word essay pertaining to the topic provided by the credit union. This year’s selected topic was, “Credit unions depend on a strong sense of community and service. How will you apply these ideals during your upcoming college years?”

MC Federal is happy to announce this year’s winners, Noah Moyer and Katie Bonomo.

Noah Moyer: Noah is a graduating from Columbia Montour AVTS and will be attending Bloomsburg University. His essay focused on his current passion for service and how he plans to continue that service throughout his upcoming college experience.

Katie Bonomo: Katie is graduating from Danville Area High School and will be attending Shippensburg University. In her essay, Katie talked about joining service organizations and serving as an RA in her residence hall with the goal of helping other students feel welcome.

MC Federal Credit Union is proud to offer this opportunity to alleviate a piece of the financial burden these students will experience as they continue to further their education. Elba Arenas, President and CEO said, “Congratulations to our young MC members. We look forward to celebrating with you as you continue to experience all of life’s milestones! Best of luck as you continue on your educational journey.”
