Was one of your New Year's Resolutions to become more financially fit? Then CU1 has just the thing for you. We offer Discover Financial Fitness classes to the public, absolutely free of charge!  Our Discover Financial Fitness class takes a little over an hour and goes through everything you need to know about budgeting, credit, and what to do if you get in trouble with credit. 

The first class of 2012 takes place on Thursday, February 2, 2012 at 6 p.m. in the community room at our Mountain View Branch (115 N. Bragaw Street). The class is free but you do need to register by contacting Ashley, our Financial Education Coordinator at 339-8282 or oneforallalaska@cu1.org.

Let CU1 help you keep your resolutions this year!

It's PFD application time, which means it's also time again to Pick. Click. Give.

The Pick. Click. Give. program gives you the opportunity to make an impact by sharing a little (or a lot) of your PFD with a cause you care about. Maybe your passion is feeding hungry children, or early childhood education, or sheltering homeless pets? Whatever you're passionate about in your community, you're sure to find it amongst the list of over 400 Alaskan non-profits who are eligible for a gift through the Pick. Click. Give. program.

When you go online to apply for your PFD, you will see the Pick. Click. Give. option. It's quick, easy and any and all donations make our community a better place!

If you give...and your neighbor does...and another....it will add up quickly.  With one donation at a time, we can make good things happen all over Alaska.

Due to a tragic home fire, a family in our community has been left devastated.

If you would like to help, a memorial fund has been set up at Credit Union 1. Donations can be made in person at any CU1 branch or online by transfering funds to 521098, Memorial Flores.

Any questions or inquiries about further assistance can be directed to Brittnea at 744-3716 or Marco at 884-4662.
