Five Star Foundation

At Five Star Credit Union, we want to have an impact beyond our core function of providing financial services. We established a private charitable foundation in 2020 to provide funding for educational and training programs for young people and for worthy organizations that move our communities forward.

Endowing students future with scholarship grants 

The Five Star Credit Union Foundation is a 501(c)(3) organization established and funded by Five Star Credit Union.

 

In 2025, the foundation endowed another $150,000 to build upon the Five Star Credit Union scholarships to Wallace Community College in Dothan, Wallace Community College in Eufaula, Southern Regional Technical College in Bainbridge, Enterprise State Community College in Enterprise, and College of Coastal Georgia. The total endowments now stand at $100,000 to Wallace in Dothan and College of Coastal GA, $50,000 to Southern Regional Technical, Wallace in Eufuala, and Enterprise State. Since 2022, the foundation has given $430,000 in scholarship grants impacting 34 students. 

 

Each Five Star Credit Union scholarship is distributed through the participating colleges. Applications are taken through each college's scholarship application process.
