Thrive Credit Union is proud to be a certified CDFI. But what does that mean?
A CDFI is a financial institution that provides affordable financial products and services to underserved communities. The CDFI certification, awarded by the U.S. Department of the Treasury, recognizes institutions that are committed to promoting economic growth and financial inclusion in their communities.
As a CDFI, Thrive Credit Union is dedicated to:
Offering financial services to individuals and businesses that may not have access to traditional banking
Supporting local economic development and job creation
Providing financial education and resources to empower community members
Our CDFI status reinforces our mission to serve all members of our community, particularly those who have been historically underserved by traditional financial institutions. By choosing Thrive, you're not just improving your own financial wellness – you're helping to strengthen our entire community.
