At CopperPoint, we believe that access to quality education can change lives. Our 2025 scholarship recipients are a powerful reminder of that. We’re proud to introduce this year’s ten awardees of the CopperPoint Insurance Companies Community Scholarship, selected from across our footprint in Alaska, Arizona, California, Idaho and Washington.
One student from Alaska also received the Sherry Isenberg Memorial Scholarship, a $5,000 award that honors Sherry’s legacy and the positive impact she made in the communities we serve.
Administered by Scholarship America, this annual program supports undergraduate sophomores and juniors who are committed to continuing their education. From engineering and accounting to community service and computer science, these students represent a wide range of passions but they share a common drive to make a difference.

“I'm really thankful for this scholarship. It's helping me get one step closer to my dream of making education more accessible through machine learning. As a Computer Science student at Caltech I’ve always wanted to use tech for good and this summer I’ll be working at the ML for Education lab at EPFL in Switzerland.
