Taylorville Community Credit Union has opened registration for its 12th annual Scholarship Program, giving high school seniors a chance to earn financial help for their education.
The program is open to seniors at Taylorville, Hillsboro, Litchfield, and Pana High Schools who plan to attend a trade school, community college, or four-year university after graduation in May of 2026. Registration is open now through Friday, October 10th.
Students who sign up will need to provide their name, a quality photo—such as a senior picture—and a completed parental permission form. Forms are available at all four TCCU branches, as well as online at TCCU.org.
Two students from each of the four schools will ultimately be awarded $1,000 scholarships. Winners are chosen through community voting, which takes place at participating local businesses. For every $10 spent at a participating retailer, customers can cast one vote for a student. Posters featuring the registered students will be displayed in those businesses beginning in mid-November, and voting continues through the end of February 2026.
The scholarships will be presented in the spring of 2026.
For more information about registration, or about Taylorville Community Credit Union, visit TCCU.org or stop by one of their locations in Taylorville, Hillsboro, Litchfield, or Pana.
