Providence Federal Credit Union

'Tis the season to give back! 💝 This holiday season our Community Impact Fund bought, wrapped, and delivered gifts to 10 UDW families in need of a little holiday cheer. Thanks so much to Katie and Maria at our San Diego branch for spreading joy this holiday season and fulfilling the wishes of others!

The final numbers have been tallied from the 42nd and final Providence Festival of Trees Portland, and a staggering $1.4 million was raised to support Providence Children’s Health! The gala event featured generous donations and trees auctioned off to Providence Children’s Health. We won and donated the entire "Baking Spirits Bright: Sugar and Spice" to the Providence Child Center, and our tablemates at CCCU (Consolidated Community Credit Union) won the auction for the “Skating with Friends of the Forest” tree! It was a magical night and we were honored to be part of this support cause along with all the donors, sponsors, volunteers, and community members who continue to help those most vulnerable in our community.

Our Merger is official! 🥳 PFCU members overwhelmingly approved the merger with Consolidated Community Credit Union at the Special Membership Meeting on December 10 with 88% of ballots cast in favor. PFCU and CCCU will officially merge on January 1, 2025, and we’re kicking off the celebration by introducing two exciting new products for our members: Apex Checking, our high-yield checking account with rates up to 5.50% APY*, and the Mega Money Market with rates up to 4.75% APY*, both available starting January 1. In June 2025, our members will enjoy the full benefits of the merger, including access to shared branching and the convenience of Zelle for fast, easy payments.

We have been delighted to play a small part in supporting this great cause over the years.
