The Kawartha Credit Union has created a new financial award to support Trent University business students. The first Kawartha Credit Union Award, with a value of $1,000, will be presented in February to a full-time undergraduate student enrolled in the Business Administration program based upon financial need and academic achievement.

Kawartha Credit Union is a socially responsible company and makes significant and positive contributions to the communities they serve through their Community Involvement Program. They have committed to support a Trent student for the next three years.
