What our team members have to say:

Kelly E. Myers
Assistant Branch Manager
"My daughter, Olivia Snyder, will be attending The Christ College of Nursing in the fall of 2026. As a parent, I am incredibly grateful for the opportunity GECU has given Olivia through this scholarship. It truly warms my heart to see her hard work and dedication recognized, and it brings me comfort knowing this support will help ease her path forward. I am deeply appreciative of the encouragement it provides as she takes this meaningful step toward her future."

Lauren Dunbar
Vice President, Virtual Branch
"My daughter Kaitlynn is attending Miami University and will be majoring in Primary School Education. The opportunity for Kaitlynn to receive a scholarship from GECU is incredibly meaningful to me. As a proud parent, and also a proud GECU team member, being part of an organization that invests in its people and extends that support to our families speaks volumes. It reminds me that what we do everyday matters beyond the workplace, and that GECU lives out our values by consistently giving back. Moments like this make me especially thankful to be part of GECU."
