Explorers Credit Union exists to support, educate, encourage, and inspire our members to reach every financial goal. And since we are all driven to make an impact, we have established two scholarship programs to help you on your journey. We are committed to helping our members build a strong financial foundation today for a better tomorrow.

Each year, we present five (5) $2,500 scholarships to graduating high school members in pursuit of higher education, as well as the Jon Economy Business Scholarship. We are happy to announce that applications for the 2023 Scholarships are now being accepted.

Explorers Credit Union in Yankton will be hosting a free Shred Day on Wednesday, October 12th from 1 pm to 6 pm. Bring up to four boxes of papers and documents you need to dispose of. We will also be taking donations to our local food pantry.

All donations (both non-perishable food items or cash) will get you a hot cup of Jeron’s Java coffee! Jeron’s Java has partnered with Explorers for our Gear For Good this fall. We will have Jeron’s Java coffee for sale at shred day as well. Any purchase of Gear for Good coffee will also go to the Contact Center.
