Erase your student loan debt

September 7, 2022 | Ohio Credit Union Foundation

Student loan repayment isn’t fun, but the Ohio Credit Union Foundation (OCUF) is here to help. Each year, the OCUF provides $5,000 Student Loan Forgiveness Grants to Ohio credit union employees seeking to erase student debt. Submit a brief narrative (one to two pages) explaining how credit unions can attract young professionals to the Credit Union Movement by Monday, Oct. 24 at 11:59:59 p.m. EDT. Ohio Credit Union League staff will score grant submissions based on creativity, essay details, and Credit Union Movement knowledge. The Ohio Credit Union Foundation board members will then judge the top five scoring entries. Grant winners will be announced Thursday, Dec. 1.

Don’t miss your opportunity to put a dent in your student debt. Contact League Director of Member Success and Communications Christy Clark for questions or assistance.
