Cents & Sensibility

Wouldn’t it be great if you could…
…get a loan more quickly and easily than ever before?
…avoid signing your name over and over on a stack of paperwork?
…complete the entire process without even leaving the house?
Now you can!

We all must do some form of public speaking at one time or another and if you are like most people, you have some fear of it. Work, school, church, clubs, social, and family gatherings all give you opportunities to speak in small or large groups with people you know and don’t know. There is a group that helps you build the skills and confidence in developing public speaking and this group is called Toastmasters.

Easterseals is a non-profit organization that provides health and human services to people of all ages with disabilities or needs, as well as provides support to their families. For over 85 years, Easterseals has assisted more than 1 million people around the United States and Puerto Rico at more than 550 locations. Funding from different agencies and private companies offer some financial help, but Easterseals relies greatly on public contribution. CEFCU is one example of an organization that prides itself on being involved in the surrounding communities, and therefore contributes donations to Easterseals each year.

CEFCU recently completed our 12th annual canned food drive to benefit local families.  Once again, employee donations broke the previous year’s record, with a total of 11,817 items donated to local food pantries!  These non-perishable food items can provide a bag of groceries for over 800 families.
