The Jeffrey C. Moscicki Scholarship Program was established to honor the legacy and dedication of the late Jeffrey C. Moscicki, who served as the Board Chair of UVA Community Credit Union from 1998 until his passing in February 2024. He had a distinguished career in the medical and clinical research field, served in the U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary, volunteered locally, and was a highly esteemed member of the UVA Community Credit Union family.
