FHC Credit Union, through its Foundation, is once again championing young entrepreneurs by opening applications for the FHC Entrepreneurship Awards. This initiative is designed to inspire and support the next generation of business leaders by providing financial assistance and expert guidance to help turn their business ideas into reality.
Each year, three outstanding entrepreneurs are awarded $500,000 in start-up capital to launch or expand their businesses. In addition to financial support, awardees gain exclusive access to mentorship and coaching sessions led by industry professionals to help them grow and sustain their businesses.
