Ferndale, Michigan – Educating the youth of today for a better tomorrow is important to Credit Union ONE.  When the opportunity arose to be part of an educational event during Money Smart Week, the credit union knew this was something that they definitely wanted to be involved with.
 
As concerned community partners, the credit union recently participated in a financial literacy event at the Hazel Park Library.  The program included games that focused on financial education teachings which were donated by Credit Union ONE, along with goody bags for all children attending the event.
 
Said John Kozich, Vice President of Community Relations for Credit Union ONE, “Making sure our youth are receiving financial education along with their formal education is important in ensuring their success as they become adults in our communities.  This is something that Credit Union ONE feels very strongly about and is pleased to be able to lend this support.”
 
Credit Union ONE, headquartered in Ferndale Michigan for seventy-five years, offers a wide array of financial services and access to over 30,000 ATM’s nationwide, serving 110,000 members, with seventeen offices in three major metropolitan areas, including Metro Detroit, Grand Rapids and Traverse City.
