Seniors & Parents: Contact us for further information regarding the LA Amundson Scholarships given away each spring. Of all the stocks, bonds and commodities that are bought, sold and traded, not a single one can eclipse the value of an education. It is the single greatest ingredient to success. Understanding this, L.A. Amundson, owner of First Security Banks, established his scholarship program in 1993 with a $5 million endowment. As of 2019, the L.A. Amundson Scholarship has awarded 5,169 scholarships in the amount of $6,147,500. *Parents must maintain primary checking account at FSB for student to be eligible.
