Health Advantage Credit Union Supports Student Success Through 2026 Scholarship Program
Health Advantage Credit Union continues its commitment to education by awarding scholarships to four students through its 2026 Student Scholarship Program, supporting learners at multiple stages of their academic journeys.
The annual program recognizes students for their dedication to education, clear career goals, and commitment to personal growth. This year’s recipients include both graduating high school seniors preparing for college and current college students advancing in specialized fields. Together, they reflect the diverse paths students take as they prepare for future careers that will strengthen local communities.
The 2026 scholarship recipients are pursuing degrees in fields such as aviation, architecture and sustainability, and nursing. These areas of study represent vital industries that support regional infrastructure, healthcare, and long-term economic development.
“Pursuing higher education takes commitment and discipline. These students have demonstrated both” said Laura Crase, President & CEO of Health Advantage Credit Union. “Supporting their next steps is one way we invest in the strength of our communities, and we’re proud to recognize their hard work.”
By assisting students as they continue their education, Health Advantage Credit Union is investing not only in individual success but also in the future workforce of the communities it serves. Programs like the Student Scholarship Program help reduce financial barriers while reinforcing the importance of education, perseverance, and goal setting.
