OUR HISTORY OF COMMUNITY SUPPORT
Your Credit Union is proud to support education, healthcare, the arts, environment and wildlife, and community organizations financially and through in-kind contributions and volunteerism. Our employees serve on community boards and advisory committees from Taos through Albuquerque to Socorro. We also hold memberships in the Chambers of Commerce in the cities and towns we serve.
For example, New Mexico Educators Federal Credit Union employees participate in the annual Making Strides Against Breast Cancer Walk, United Way, local high school career days and volunteer reading to young children in schools. We have helped build a house for Habitat for Humanity, and we've provided financial and volunteer support for UNM Children's Hospital, Presbyterian Foundation, ARCA, The Assistance League of Albuquerque, and many educational and community foundations.
For more than 17 years, New Mexico Educators Federal Credit Union has been teaching financial literacy in public, private and parochial schools in Albuquerque, Rio Rancho, Los Lunas, Belen, Taos and Moriarty. Our Membership Development Team spends summers presenting Money Management workshops to thousands of college freshmen at UNM to ensure they have the financial knowledge necessary to avoid excessive debt and identity theft.
We're particularly aware of the need for financial literacy among our young people. That's why we put special emphasis on money management skills for middle and high school students throughout the school year. This training takes place not only in schools but in no-cost evening workshops at our Albuquerque Training Center.
New Mexico Educators Federal Credit Union also supports many welfare-to-work programs throughout our region by providing credit counseling and money management classes to individuals who are committed to improving their lives.
We would like to give special thanks to our members for their commitment and participation in the Community Rewards Program which helps fund many of these worthy causes.
