Food Drive: Our 5th Annual

Cal Coast Cares Foundation: We achieved an important milestone this year, awarding $1 million in grants and scholarships to our local students and educators since the Foundation’s inception in 2015. This is all possible through generous donations from credit union members, partners, and the community. This coming year, we are proud to be awarding an additional $260,000.
Receiving this scholarship means the world to me, and I am truly grateful for this opportunity. It serves as a powerful reminder of the belief and investment placed in me, and I am committed to working diligently every day to maximize its impact. I will seize this chance to excel academically, contribute meaningfully to my community, and strive to make a lasting difference.
