Ray Campbell Memorial Scholarship

In honor of one of our founding members and a dedicated community banker, we created the Ray Campbell Memorial Scholarship. Each year, a minimum of one $500 scholarship is awarded to a high school senior that is a child, stepchild or foster child of a community bank employee located in Ohio in Ray's memory.

CBAO is accepting applications for the Ray Campbell Scholarship until April 15, 2020. Full details are available on our Ray Campbell Scholarship page.
