Five Local High School Seniors Awarded $2,000 Scholarships

CU West Announces 2023 Scholarship Recipients
Credit Union West Awards $10,000 in Scholarships to Arizona High School Seniors
Credit Union West is excited to announce the five Arizona high school seniors who were chosen to receive $10,000 in scholarships from the Credit Union West 2023 Scholarship Program! This year, the scholarships funds are provided by the CUWest CARES Charitable Foundation, which made it possible for the organization to double the funds awarded to each student. Each of the five winners will receive $2,000 for a trade school, 2-year, or 4-year college of their choice this fall.
The five winners were chosen based on academic achievement, community involvement, and overall character. Applicants were also asked to submit an essay about a crucial money management skill that they believe everyone should learn.
As part of Credit Union West’s legacy of serving military personnel, two of the scholarships were awarded to students who participated in their high school’s Junior Reserve Officers’ Training Corps (JROTC).
- Briley Olson, Prescott High School, JROTC
- Cendy Nguyen, Washington High School
- Jordyn Kulon, Cactus High School, JROTC
- Lindsay Carter, Prescott High School
- Lucia Pease-Wingenter, Millennium High School
“We are so proud to provide scholarships to local high school students each year to support their educational journey and help them establish strong financial futures,” said Karen Roch, President and CEO of Credit Union West. “Congratulations to the 2023 scholarship winners, who each exemplify a strong commitment to their education and communities.”
