Cooperative Difference Scholarships

Scholarships

Pioneer Electric is proud to offer scholarships to members’ children who are high school seniors pursuing any continuing education. In 2024/2025 Pioneer will award scholarships, up to $1,000, for children of members pursuing trade/technical education and 15-$500 for students pursuing any continuing education. Applicants will be randomly selected if they meet all listed requirements in the scholarship rules.

Additionally, one of the scholarship recipients, with plans to attend a four-year school, will be randomly selected to compete with students from the other electric cooperatives throughout the state for additional scholarship money through Ohio’s Electric Cooperatives. For those competing at the state level, the student’s education must be transferrable to an accredited college.

The 2024/2025 Scholarship Application process will begin with the Technical/Trade Scholarship from November 1 -December 20, 2024, followed by the Children of Members’ Scholarship from January 1 – February 21, 2025. Please check back for additional rules and to complete the online application(s).
