Rooted in the communities in which we serve, Fond du Lac Credit Union and our employees are dedicated to helping others in the community with a variety of initiatives each year.
Here's how:
Financial Literacy
Year-round, Fond du Lac Credit Union sponsors and hosts financial literacy events and seminars for a wide variety of ages and topics. FDLCU is also a proud sponsor and participant of Money Smart Week.
Lobby Fundraisers
FDLCU hosts a variety of fundraisers for local efforts or charities for members to participate in, such as: Children's Miracle Network, Fond du Lac Homeless Shelter, ASTOP, Solutions Center, Back to School Supply Drive, and more.
Community Involvement
Fond du Lac Credit Union encourages community involvement and offers employees up to 12 hours of pay annually to volunteer for an approved organization of their choice. The credit union also conducts many events to reward their members in the form of special celebrations, giveaways, discounts, and more!
Donations
In addition to credit union made donations, such as educational scholarships or sponsorships, FDLCU employees also contribute to a new charity every month. If you ever see an FDLCU employee wearing jeans on a Friday, it means they personally donated to that month's charity, such as Sabish Elves, Back to School Drive, Family Resource Center, Boys and Girls Club, Big Brothers Big Sisters, and more.
