LOS ANGELES–The Fire Family Foundation has announced the recipients of its 2018 Fire Family Foundation Annual Scholarships. More than 100 applications were scored and a very talented pool of young adults were interviewed by the Scholarship Committee.
“Because of the high level of accomplishments of our exceptional candidates it is always a very difficult task to make our selections,” the credit union said. “This year we had a tie and awarded an extra scholarship for a total of 11 recipients.”
The Fire Family Foundation awarded $55,000 in scholarship grants with each recipient receiving $5,000 to help with costs directly associated with attaining a college degree.
The Fire Family Scholarship recipients are students who demonstrated exemplary excellence in academic studies, leadership, personal accomplishments and community involvement.
