Any member seeking higher education may apply
ROANOKE, VA (June 13, 2013) Blue Eagle Credit Union is pleased to offer the Alexander Scholarship, awarding $1,000 each to ten deserving members. The scholarship is named in honor of Alec and Doris Alexander, a husband and wife team who spent many years building their credit union with a sound foundation of quality member service and financial integrity that all members of Blue Eagle Credit Union still enjoy today.
