Community Impact

We live in a great place, and we know it.

When you live in a great place, you just know it. That feeling of everyone doing their thing and finding joy - it's called community. At Members First Credit Union, that’s why we’re here. To be part of the neighborhood. To build it up. To watch it grow. That’s why we’re big on financial education. Supporting local schools and nonprofits, helping families into homes, and pitching in wherever we can. Because this place is our home too.

And at Members First, we help create thriving communities... for the joy of it.

As we live out the “people helping people” credit union philosophy, Members First proudly supports our communities through donations, sponsorships, student scholarships, Little Free Libraries at each branch location, meaningful partnerships and volunteerism.

Where we focus our support

As we invest our time and resources in the communities we serve, we focus on three areas of impact:

Housing

Affordable and accessible housing is a widespread issue in the state of Michigan. Members First has a vested interest and ability to impact this issue through our products, services, and philanthropic giving.

Education

Members First was founded as a teacher’s credit union. Education remains at the core of our mission through student scholarships, financial wellness programs, support for literacy, and more.
