The Genesis Group and First Source are pleased to announce what they hope to become an annual scholarship grant for teachers.
Originally founded as a Teachers Federal Credit Union, First Source gives back to our community in a multitude of ways with an emphasis on education.
“Traditional scholarships are most often given to the student,” said Pamela Way, Community Relations Supervisor for First Source. “We wanted to also give back directly to the educators. This new scholarship grant will allow for 3 classrooms to receive $1,000 each to fund a project or program that teaches personal finance and money management.”

The program must encompass financial education or money management in Oneida or Herkimer Counties for grades K-12 or college courses. For details and to apply, educators can visit fsource.org.
Applications are due by October 21, 2022. Winners will be announced at the Genesis Group’s Annual Celebration of Education Event at Hart’s Hill Inn on Thursday, November 17th at 5:30 p.m.
