ECI REC has distributed over 140 scholarships to graduating high school seniors since 2007 through its Scholarship Program. In 2019, the Cooperative will award up to ten students $1,000 scholarships to continue their education in college in any field. Up to two $1,000 scholarships are offered to those who are accepted to and attend the Powerline Technology Program at Northwest Iowa Community College.
“Concern for the community is one of the principles our Cooperative is built on,” said ECI REC CEO Steve Marlow. “Investing in the education of our youth is an investment in the future of our communities.”
To be eligible for scholarships, students must have parents or legal guardians who are members of ECI REC. Applications can be downloaded on our website.
