"The People Over Profit, or POP Foundation, was created about five years ago, and it really supports the whole education community. Both students and teachers and all educators, quite frankly, to make sure we improve and enhance the lives of all education within the Southern Nevada community," said President and CEO Scott Arkills.
Silver State Schools Credit Union has awarded more than $1.2 million in scholarships to graduating seniors since 1989.
