The WCCU Scholarship program aims to benefit WCCU Members and children of Members by providing funding for expenses at a postsecondary school or academic institution. Launched in 2018, we have awarded $10,000 each year through our scholarship program. We are committed to fostering educational opportunities for young people and believe in the importance of supporting our local communities. WCCU would like to thank all of this year’s applicants for taking the time to apply for the scholarship award.
We wish all of the 2024 Graduates success on their next journey!
