The Kerry Hurley Scholarship

This year, MassMutual Federal Credit Union is honored to name the first of our ten scholarships after Kerry Hurley, MMFCU’s former Chair of the Board. This scholarship was established to honor the memory of Kerry Hurley, a cherished member of our MMFCU family whose legacy continues to inspire us all.

Kerry dedicated more than 20 years to the Credit Union, first as the leader of the Supervisory Committee and later as Chairman of the Board of Directors. He was known not only for his outstanding leadership and sharp insight but also for his kindness, compassion, and unwavering commitment to helping others. His presence was a guiding light within MMFCU, and his impact on our organization and community will never be forgotten.

In selecting Isabella Spaulding, the first recipient of this scholarship, MMFCU sought someone who embodies the values Kerry exemplified: integrity, dedication, and genuine care for others. We hope this scholarship inspires Isabella to lead with the same heart and purpose that Kerry brought to everything he did.

Congratulations to all of our scholarship recipients on this well-deserved recognition. We look forward to seeing all that you will accomplish and the positive impact you will make in the world.
