John G. Bernheiser Educational Award

Build a bright financial future with Riverfront...
John G. Bernheiser Educational Award

John G. Bernheiser, past manager of Riverfront, was an unfaltering supporter of the credit union movement. His dedication and spirit enriched all of those his life touched. It was in celebration of his work and in tribute to his memory that the Board of Directors of Riverfront Federal Credit Union established the Annual John G. Bernheiser Educational Award.

A qualifying institution is any institution listed in the Title IV Institutional Code List, and includes colleges, technical schools, nursing schools sponsored by hospitals, career institutes, etc. Recipients will be chosen using a random, lottery method. The award check will be made payable jointly to the student and the institution. Recipients will be notified and checks will be disbursed no later than August 11, 2008.
