INDIANAPOLIS–The Indiana Members Foundation, the charitable arm of Indiana Members Credit Union (IMCU), along with Indiana Members Credit Union, has named Katelyn Sadlon as the recipient of the Ron Collier Family Collegiate Scholarship Program, receiving a $2,500 scholarship.
The Ron Collier Family Collegiate Scholarship Program is available to Senior students attending New Palestine High School that are members of Indiana Members Credit Union, intending to study full-time at an accredited college or university.
Indiana Members Credit Union President and CEO, Ron Collier, donates $2,500 annually to Indiana Members Foundation for the scholarship for a New Palestine High School Senior.
Collier is a long time resident of New Palestine, and his three children all graduated from New Palestine High School. His oldest daughter, Ashley, is a teacher at Sugar Grove Elementary and her sons attend Sugar Grove.
After graduating from Ball State University with a bachelor’s degree in Secondary Education, he went on to teach at Noblesville High School. Collier has been with IMCU since 1985 and became President and CEO in 2003.
Indiana Members Credit Union continues to grow under his leadership, reaching $2.9 Billion in assets in 2021.
The credit union said Collier embraces the credit union philosophy of “people helping people” and helped establish Indiana Members Foundation in 2010 exclusively for the purpose of being a positive influence in the community served by Indiana Members Credit Union; specifically, providing school children in the Indianapolis area with the necessities essential for learning and succeeding in their education.
