SPARKS-GLENCOE, MD (April 30, 2024) — To support the graduating class of 2024 in the local youth community, First Financial Federal Credit Union has granted 54 graduating seniors a total of $162,000 in scholarships for post-secondary institutions through its Scholarship Program.
The program is open to graduating students who attend Baltimore, Carroll, Worcester, and Somerset County Public Schools as well as private schools within the credit unions field of membership. This marks the 26th year of the program with scholarships totaling $2.5 million awarded to over 800 students.
