Announcement of 2007 Harold Hewitt Scholarship Recipients

On Friday, May 25, 2007, Windsor Family Credit Union (WFCU) announced the recipients of the 2007 Harold Hewitt Scholarship (HHS).

During Education Week, youth enrolled in JK to Grade 12 were invited to answer the question, ?What can you, your family and your school do to make the community a better place to live?'

Sixteen recipients were chosen to receive this special scholarship that has been established by WFCU as an annual contribution to post secondary education for youth in our community. This special scholarship was inspired by the late Harold Hewitt, WFCU's long term Director on their Board whose dedication to the community was an integral part of the Credit Union. Over the past six years Windsor Family has presented 64 youth in our community with post secondary school scholarships through the Harold Hewitt Scholarship program totaling $21,800.

The following youth were selected as recipients of the 2007 WFCU Harold Hewitt Scholarship:

Funds will be entrusted to WFCU in the name of the recipients to be used towards their post-secondary education.

Congratulations to all recipients.
