Hughes Federal Credit Union Announces Scholarships for High School Students
TUCSON, Ariz. (Feb. 5, 2024) – Hughes Federal Credit Union is now accepting applications for The Roberta Reeves Memorial Scholarship, offering a total of $14,000 in educational funds to local high school students. In its 19th year, the scholarship program will award seven students $2,000 each to support their higher education endeavors.
The scholarship was renamed last year in memory of Roberta Reeves, a long-serving Hughes Federal Credit Union board member. The scholarship recognizes her legacy in the Tucson community.
"Roberta's dedication to education and community service was outstanding. Through this scholarship, we aim to uphold her vision by empowering our local youth and supporting their academic journeys," said Elisa Ross, vice president of marketing at Hughes Federal Credit Union.
High school seniors who are entering a college, university, trade school or certification program in the fall of 2024 and are primary members of Hughes Federal Credit Union are eligible to apply. The application process involves submitting an online form, a written essay, or a 1- to 2-minute video.
The application deadline is March 15, 2024. Details and the application can be found at HughesFCU.org/Scholarship. The Roberta Reeves Memorial Scholarship recipients will be announced in May 2024.
Since its inception in 2005, the scholarship program has awarded over $100,000, significantly contributing to the education of local students.
"We are proud to continue this tradition of supporting educational excellence in our community," added Ross.
