Scholarship Opportunity

As of February 2008, First Citizens National Bank will annually award two $1,000 annual scholarships to Mansfield University. One scholarship will be awarded to a Mansfield University student who resides within our market. Preference will be given to students who are customers of First Citizens or whose family members are customers. The second scholarship will be awarded to an employee, a local board member, or a dependent of an employee or local board member. Both scholarships require academic excellence and community service member; Mansfield University Foundation will administer the scholarship selection and awards.

"Our vision statement, communicated to shareholders in the Annual Report each year, speaks about our commitment to our employees and to good citizenship," stated Randall E. Black, CEO and President of First Citizens. "These scholarships demonstrate our intent to fulfill this commitment, to assist employees in accomplishing their personal growth goals and to make our communities a better place to live, work and play."

Additional information and applications for both scholarships are available at any First Citizens National Bank office, by calling 800-326-9486, or click here to apply.
