Help us help the community this holiday season
Posted 4 weeks ago

We have partnered with A Community Christmas again to support Refuge of Hope Ministries for COATS FOR CHRISTMAS. We will have donation boxes at all three Friends & Family locations.
Please consider donating a new or gently used coat, scarf or sweater for a man, woman, or child to provide warmth, love and hope. The drive will begin the first week of October and conclude on December 14.
We will also be participating in A Community Christmas ADOPT A FAMILY. We will have Giving Trees in each of our three lobby locations with families’ names to adopt. If you want to fulfill gift wishes for a family in need, we ask that you purchase the gifts, wrap, label and return them by Monday December 4.
A Message From Our CEO: Sleep Well With Your Savings in Friends and Family Credit Union
Posted 8 months ago
At Friends and Family Credit Union we take your money very seriously. You can sleep well knowing that your savings are protected and secure.
Friends and Family Credit Union is different from most financial institutions. First, you own it and ownership is real at your credit union. Second, through your peers on our Board of Directors, you lead it; your credit union is about Main Street not Wall Street. Your Board is all about member protection, member service, and local community, not chasing speculative returns.
Friends and Family Credit Union is closely supervised and regulated by the Ohio Department of Financial Institutions. And Friends and Family Credit Union is a strong, safe, and sound financial institution with stable capital, profitability, and liquidity.
The bottom line is that you can count on Friends and Family Credit Union today as our members have for over 60 years.
You can also count on strong deposit insurance at Friends and Family Credit Union. As a privately insured credit union, Friends and Family offers a safe place for members to build savings. Your deposits are protected by American Share Insurance and insured up to at least $250,000 per account.
American Share Insurance has powered private deposit insurance up to at least $250,000 per account since 1974 without experiencing a loss.

To avoid this happening to you, keep your account active with just one transaction per year. Pick a date to annually make the deposit, such as an anniversary, birthday or even at income tax time.
Call Friends & Family Credit Union if you have concerns or questions at 330-832-1371.
