CDI believes in investing in future leaders, and we are proud to partner with students to achieve their goals. The CDI Scholarship Program is a competitive program that provides financial assistance awards to help pay a portion of the cost of college and/or career training for eligible children of CDI employees and/or member-owners employees’ children.

The number of scholarships awarded each year will be dependent upon the number and quality of applications received.

Scholarships will be awarded for College and/or Vocational/Technical school. All institutions must be accredited and approved by CDI.
