Raymond A. Vinson Scholarship Fund

Community First Credit Union

Before his death in 1992, educator Raymond A. Vinson was a nationally known credit union pioneer. He helped form more than 40 Florida credit unions (including the Duval County Teachers Credit Union, founded in 1935, now Community First Credit Union of Florida). Vinson’s legacy of dedication, compassion and commitment to the credit union movement will forever touch lives. To honor Raymond A. Vinson, Community First annually awards scholarships annually to five college freshmen up to $6,000 ($1,500 annually per student, renewable for four years). See website for details.
