2020 Elsie P. Kinney Scholarship Awards

Stoneham M.E. Federal Credit Union awarded two local students with scholarships for their upcoming freshman year of college. The students were the recipients of the Elsie P.

Federal Credit Union or children of members.

Stoneham M.E. Federal Credit Union’s board of directors reviewed the applications and ultimately choose the students who demonstrated excellence in both academics and extracurricular activities. This year’s recipients are Jessalyn Leblanc of North Reading, who will study at Endicott College, and Sara Burt, of North Reading, who will attend Curry College.

The students were each awarded $500 and recognized at a reception on August 27th,2020 at the Melrose First Branch Office at 616 Main Street in Melrose, MA. Lydia Bourque, Elsie P. Kinney’s daughter, presented the student(s) with the scholarship.
