Delta Community Credit Union, Georgia's largest credit union with more than $6.5 billion in assets, is pleased to announce recipients of its15^th annual scholarship program. Five students will receive a total of $25,000 based on academic achievement, community involvement and an essay submission.

Each of these students will receive a $5,000 scholarship:

"As we celebrate Delta Community's 80^th anniversary this year, we are also privileged to celebrate these bright, motivated students, who promise to continue making meaningful contributions to their communities," said Delta Community CEO Hank Halter. "We're grateful for opportunities to invest in their education, and we wish them personal and professional success."

The Delta Community Scholarship Program is open to eligible students seeking a first undergraduate degree. Awards may be used to fund tuition, books, housing and other expenses.

In addition to its annual Scholarship Program, Delta Community also offers quarterly scholarships for students attending Historically Black Colleges or Universities; an annual grant-making Philanthropic Fund; and a wide array of free financial literacy workshops through its Financial Education Center.
