2023 Scholarships

Stepping into the future

The Scholarship Program is a long-standing Blackhawk Community Credit Union tradition to help students with the increasing costs of higher education. We believe that anyone who wants a higher education should be able to achieve that dream. In 2023, we awarded a total of four $5,000 scholarships to local high school seniors. 

Meet the winners

Congratulations to our winners hailing from Deforest High School (Kira Fries), Craig High School (Ellen Joyce & Jocelyn Rammer), and Parker High School (Madison Wiedenheft). Each applicant submitted a 3-4 minute video showing the BHCCU Scholarship Committee their favorite place or places in their community, and talking about what it means to them. These videos, as well as their applications were reviewed by the committee, and evaluated based on their content, creativity, and community appreciation.
