TAMPA, Fla.–USF Credit Union is investing $150,000 to help fund scholarships for students attending AdventHealth University’s new Tampa campus, expanding access to high-demand healthcare careers in nursing and more.
The credit union will also provide customized financial wellness programs to support students as they pursue their education.
“AdventHealth University trains hearts and minds to heal – and we’re proud to bring financial strength into that equation,” USFCU President and CEO Richard J. Skaggs said in a statement. “When healthcare professionals are financially strong, focused, and supported, entire communities thrive. We believe in the mission, and we’re here to help power it.”
AHU, affiliated with the nationally recognized AdventHealth system, is a leader in mission-driven health care education, the credit union said, adding AHU’s whole-person approach to learning aligns with USF CU’s commitment to supporting students both academically and financially. The Tampa instructional site represents a major expansion for AHU, serving a growing population of students passionate about making a difference in their communities.
In January 2025, AdventHealth University Tampa welcomed its first cohort of nursing students to its state-of-the-art classrooms and simulation labs.
