Arlene Colombini Scholarship Recipients
Graduation season is upon us and Community First is excited to celebrate the Class of 2022.
Community First was founded by local teachers in 1959 and has supported local education ever since.
One way we support local students is through our annual Arlene Colombini Scholarship. This scholarship program began as part of an effort to support higher education in Mendocino and Lake counties. This year we expanded this scholarship to graduating high school students in Marin, Napa, and Sonoma counties.
Community First congratulates the seven $1,000 scholarship recipients:
- Meredith Hute, Marin High School
- Melina Ceja, Windsor High School
- Atlantis Jones, Upper Lake High School
- Ronan Williams, Mendocino High School
- Nakolo Anderson, Willits High School
- Kieveey Duran-Gutierrez, Lower Lake High School
- Spencer Rodgers, Victory Christian Academy
Congratulations Class of 2022!

It’s Phishing Season
How to Protect Yourself from Being Phished
|
|
Scammers like to use email and text messages to trick you into giving them your personal information. Passwords, account numbers, social security numbers - you name it, they want it. If they get that information from you, they could gain access to your email, bank account, or other accounts that can have lasting effects on your personal and financial wellbeing.
Phishing emails and text messages tend to look like they’re coming from a company you know and trust. Scammers make them look like they’re from your credit union, credit card company, social networking site, or your favorite online stores.
Here are a few things to look for when you receive a suspicious email or text message:
- It states they’ve noticed suspicious activity or log-in attempts
- Claims there is a problem with your account or payment information
- Asks you to confirm personal information
- Includes an unknown invoice/bill
- Wants you to click on a link to make a payment
What Can I Do?
If you receive an email or text that claims anything listed above, ask yourself “Do I have an account with this company or know the person that contacted me?” If the answer is no, chances are it’s a phishing scam. If the answer is yes, contact the company using a phone number or website you know is real. Clicking email links or downloading attachments can install harmful malware.
Remember to think twice before clicking on any link you receive. And most importantly, know Community First will never call, email, or text you asking for your PIN, passwords, 3-digit security code (CVV2), etc.
