To help with college expenses, we have established the State Department Federal Credit Union (SDFCU) Scholarship Fund in honor of the founders and volunteers of SDFCU. This year the Board of Directors approved a $63,020 award amount to be distributed among the winners selected by the Scholarship Committee. In addition, the top scholarship recipient was awarded the Stephen K. Fischel Memorial Scholarship of $5,000 in lieu of the regular scholarship amount.

Congratulations to the Recipients of the 2018 Scholarship Program!
