COUNTRY Financial Scholars Celebrate the End of the Year

Students in the COUNTRY Financial Scholars Program connected with mentors and executives at COUNTRY’s corporate headquarters to celebrate the culmination of a year in the program. The event allowed scholars to share testimonials about the impact that Heartland and COUNTRY have had on their early college experience.

The COUNTRY Financial Scholars Program provides scholarship assistance, mentorship, and technology support to high school students in McLean County.

“This scholarship has given me the tools, support, and opportunities to not only succeed academically but also professionally. (It) has allowed me to see my potential and prepare(d) me for the future.” — Alexandria Caruthers, student in the COUNTRY Financial Scholars Program.
