  • International Credit Union Day

    October 15 2020

     

     

    On Thursday, October 15, credit union members worldwide will celebrate International Credit Union Day.

     

    The Griffith Institute Employees’ Federal Credit Union Board of Directors would like to take this opportunity to thank its members for being part of the Credit Union.   In celebration of International Credit Union Day, the CU will have mints in the Main Office of each building in the District or in your mailboxes.

     

    Credit unions are not-for-profit financial cooperatives, so our focus has always been on service to our members.  This service is provided in many ways – from financing for a new car to providing a small loan to get through tough times. Each member has an equal vote in electing a volunteer board of directors.  Since there are no stockholders, you receive higher rates on savings accounts, lower rates on loans, and lower service fees. You’ll find the best deals and the best service, year ‘round.

     

    The Board extends an invitation to all non-members to join the Griffith Institute Employees’ Federal Credit Union. 

     

    With your support, the Credit Union can expand and continue to be part of the community.  If interested call 592-9887 or email us at creditunion@springvillefcu.org.    Visit our website where there is  information about the Credit Union www.springvillefcu.org.
