Scholarships - Jean M. Yokum Scholarship
The Jean M. Yokum Scholarship is sponsored by Langley Federal Credit Union, where Mrs. Yokum started as a part-time teller at the age of 22. In 1979, she was selected as President and CEO, eventually retiring after nearly 59 years of service. Mrs. Yokum was a true testament to hard work and dedication. This scholarship is for graduating seniors who emulate the work ethic and dedication of Mrs. Yokum, and have a savings account at Langley and/or are a member of Langley’s Constellation Club. The club is designed for children through the age of 18 and provides tools for parents to teach their children the importance of financial responsibility.
