You may have noticed TCCU Scholarship Boxes in Taylorville, Hillsboro, and Litchfield at many participating businesses as the Scholarship program continues until its deadline which is February 29. There will be two graduating seniors from Taylorville, Hillsboro, and Litchfield that will receive $500, as the winners are determined by votes cast by residents and/or shoppers who stop by the participating businesses. For every $10 spent at a participating business, people can cast one vote for a student who has registered in the program.

President Will Perkins of the Taylorville Community Credit Union told Regional Radio News he has received positive feedback from many business owners of the program.

Perkins thanks the merchants for their help and support of the program as they look forward to expanding it in the future.

For more information about the scholarship and the list of participating businesses, you can go to taylorvillecommunitycreditunion.com, or in at any one of the offices in Taylorville, Hillsboro, or Litchfield. Perkins noted they will have a new website up soon that will be more responsive to their customers.
