Provident USF Student Organization Grants

Beginning in 2021, Provident Credit Union launched a student organization grant program to award $500 scholarships to USF student organizations for the use of fulfilling their education or community awareness objective. Provident is a community-based credit union with its roots deeply ingrained in education and community involvement.

Provident has previously awarded scholarship grants to USF student organizations that have made advancements in education, cultural or social responsibility and awareness or have had a significant impact in their community. At this year's ceremony, Joshua Melander, Business Development Manager, presented the scholarship grants to the following USF student organizations:

• National Society of Black Engineers (NSBE) – Supports and promotes the aspirations of collegiate and pre-collegiate students and technical professionals in engineering and technology.
• Best Buddies – Fosters one-to-one friendships between individuals with and without intellectual and developmental disabilities to create a more inclusive world.
• Student Society of Pediatric Nursing – Helps student nurses transition into pediatric nursing through leadership, professional development, public service, and education.
• Alpha Phi Omega – A co-ed service fraternity that develops leadership, promotes friendship, and provides service to humanity.

Provident Credit Union is proud to recognize these exceptional USF student organizations for their dedication to education, leadership, and community impact. We offer exclusive benefits to USF students, faculty, staff, and alumni across California—helping you build a strong financial future. Learn more.
