Each year, UMe awards two $2,500 scholarships to deserving students. But this year, one additional applicant stood out in such a meaningful way that the selection committee created a special High-Five-Hundred-Dollar Scholarship—a $500 award designed to recognize their unique impact.

The 2025 scholarship recipients are:

Gracie Gisel, Burbank High School – $2,500
Riley Hall, John Burroughs High School – $2,500
Zachary Walker, John Burroughs High School – $500

The UMe Super Awesome Scholarship honors students who not only excel in academics, but also make a positive impact in their schools and communities. It’s one more way UMe is investing in the future of Burbank—and cheering on the next generation of change-makers.

“These students truly embody the spirit of awesome,” said Anita Hutchinson, Chief Marketing Officer at UMe Credit Union. “They’re bright, passionate, and ready to take on the world—and we’re thrilled to support their next chapter.”
