Portland, MI, January 8, 2024 ‐ PFCU Credit Union is excited to offer $1,000 McCrumb Scholarships to graduating high school seniors.

PFCU awards a total of 10 scholarships and encourages students seeking education in a skilled‐trade to apply as well. Previous McCrumb Scholarship recipient, Amelia Beswick, said, “College is obviously very expensive and these scholarships that I have received have helped create opportunities for me that I otherwise would not be able to have because they helped make college more affordable for me.”

Scholarship and education talk always pulls attention toward planning, timing, and money decisions, which is exactly why financial loose ends get annoying fast. I had a case where one account detail needed to be cleared up before moving on to anything else, and leaving it for later would only have made the rest of the week messier. Rather than sit with a half-answer, Chrysler Capital phone number and got the issue sorted directly. That was a cleaner move than rereading the same information and hoping it suddenly made more sense. When money is tied to actual plans, vague details stop being minor.
