Community Is Not Just Part Of Our Name

We take the “Community” piece of our name very seriously. During a discussion a few years back, we became crystal clear as to what needed to be done to serve the communities in and around our branch offices. It was a very positive thing to do. After all, we’re in the business of insuring that we improve our members’ standard of living and better their lifestyle.

First, a community’s economic empowerment is born of the residents having more money in their pockets to spend on goods and services found in that community. We like being a part of both reclamation and growth. We do so by pricing our products and services in a way that allows our members to both save and spend more of their hard-earned money in a productive manner. This promotes personal well-being, as well as creates vibrant community health.

Second, in addition to economic empowerment, we have a social responsibility to the communities we serve. Our staff volunteers their time and money to the many causes that spring hope, progress and growth into the many neighborhoods in which we work and live. We love the people and communities we serve, and it is evidenced by our unfailing commitment – both financially and through volunteer service.
