BECU Foundation accepting applications for scholarships

BECU Foundation is currently accepting applications for its annual scholarships!

This year, the BECU Foundation is recognizing and awarding $2,500 scholarships to full-time high school seniors and undergraduates currently enrolled in an accredited two-year, four-year, or technical college or university, who play an active role in giving back to their community.

A few additional facts include:

• This year, each awarded scholarship is renewable for two years ($5,000 total). With the help of our business partners, member donations and fundraising activities, we award a minimum of 25 scholarships each year.
• In 2018, the BECU Foundation awarded 80 student members either $2,500 or $3,500 scholarships each to use toward their post-secondary degree programs. Scholarships recognize the student’s service in their school or community, leadership potential and academic achievements.
• Since 1995, the BECU Foundation has awarded more than $2.6 million in scholarships to more than 1,079 student members.
• Volunteer activities have included science interpretation for the Pacific Science Center, mentoring elementary students, and providing food to homeless youth, to name a few.
