2026 Student Bursary Award Recipients 🏆🎓

Our 2026 Student Bursary award was open to applications June of 2026. The purpose of the award was for three members of Cairde Credit Union who are starting or already in 3rd level education to receive funds towards there 2026/2027 fees.

On the first week of October 2026, three names were drawn live from the applications received. Sinead O' Donnell, Béibhinn Úada and Alanah Maher Kearns were drawn. Each recipient will receive €2,000 towards there 26/27 3rd level educations fees.

Cairde Credit Union understands the financial pressure of 3rd level education on our members and the goal of the Student Bursary is to alleviate that pressure from students and their parents where we can.
