Scholarships

Homebase Credit Union greatly values education and lifelong learning. Each year, we award scholarships to four graduating seniors within our membership. Qualified students submit applications and are judged anonymously on academic merit, personal achievements, demonstrated leadership experience, extra-curricular involvement and work/volunteer experience.

2025 Excellence in Leadership Awards

Award amounts have increased! We will award four scholarships totaling $11,000:
- One (1) top award of $5,000
- Three (3) awards of $2,000 each
Any high school senior who is a Homebase Credit Union member and entering into any area of study at a two- or four-year college/university or pursuing a certificate or technical degree at a career college or technical school is encouraged to apply.
