As a member-owned financial institution, we provide our members with the best products and services available, with the lowest possible fees. Because we are a credit union, any profits we make are invested back into our products and services, as well as into the community.
Corporate Social Responsibility programs
Our corporate social responsibility (CSR) programs include community partnerships, environmental initiatives and volunteering projects that focus on building sustainable communities. For our efforts, we have been awarded two consecutive 'Silver Star' ratings in the Corporate Responsibility Index, an international measurement of CSR performance, and in 2006 we were judged 'Best New Entrant' in the Index.

Community Partnerships
Besides working with CVA, we also have strong networks with The Smith Family and the Salvation Army.

Our partnership with the Salvation Army delivers financial education, budgeting advice and interest-free loans to disadvantaged people in our community.
