Jefferson Financial Federal Credit Union (JFFCU) is pleased to launch the 2025 Peter C. Bertucci Scholarship Program, an initiative designed to support high school seniors and recognize their dedicated teachers. Named in honor of Peter C. Bertucci, a champion for community growth and education and founder of JFFCU, this program provides crucial financial support for students planning to pursue higher education and acknowledges the educators who inspire their success.

This year, Jefferson Financial will award 24 scholarships of $1,000 each to graduating high school seniors within its field of membership who are preparing to attend an accredited college, university, or vocational school. In addition, each winning recipient’s sponsoring high school teacher will receive a $200 award as a token of appreciation for their dedication.

High school seniors in JFFCU’s field of membership are encouraged to apply for the 2025 Peter C. Bertucci Scholarship Program. The deadline for applications is Friday, March 14, 2025. Eligibility criteria, submission details, and the application form are available on the Jefferson Financial website at https://www.jeffersonfinancial.org/peter-c–bertucci-scholarship-program.
