Celebrating Our 2024–2025 WESTconsin Scholarship Recipients

Posted by WESTconsin Credit Union
June 2025

At WESTconsin Credit Union, supporting education is a cornerstone of our mission, and one way we live that out is through our annual scholarship program. We’re thrilled to announce that 14 outstanding high school seniors have each been awarded a $1,000 scholarship for the 2024–2025 academic year! 

These deserving students stood out for their dedication both inside and outside the classroom. Scholarship recipients were selected based on a variety of factors, including academic achievement, school and community involvement, career aspirations, and personal goals. Each award is a recognition of their hard work and a step forward in their pursuit of higher education. 

Since 1995, WESTconsin has proudly awarded nearly $368,000 in scholarships to students across the region as a way to give back to the communities we serve and invest in the bright future of our young members.
