The Liberty Bank Scholarship was established to reward four graduating high school seniors for their Leadership, Scholarship and Community Involvement. Each year the bank selects a winner from Alton, Civic Memorial and Marquette Catholic High Schools, along with a 4th at-large winner from other area high schools. Each scholarship recipient is awarded $4,000 to be used for his or her further education, which is paid in annual $1,000 increments. Liberty Bank has awarded over $250,000 in scholarships to area students. That figure will increase by $16,000 this fall as the bank distributes annual scholarship checks to the 16 scholarships winners from 2015 to 2018.
Liberty Bank, a United Community Bank, has locations in Alton, Godfrey and Bethalto. For additional information on the bank visit bankliberty.com, ucbbank.com or call 618-462-7000.
