Soaring Newsletter Q1 2022

appy New Year! 2022 marks the 85 th anniversary for Eagle Community Credit Union. Founded In 1937 by Postal Employees in Santa Ana, the Credit Union was formed to provide a safe place for Members to save money and borrow at affordable rates. A lot has changed for the Credit Union since our humble beginnings, but our founding pillar of helping Members get ahead financially remains a foundational part of our organization today. Through the years, we've expanded to help Members beyond the Postal Service to include Federal Government employees, local businesses, and the Orange County Community. As a not- for-profit Credit Union we exist to help individuals and families in Orange County grow financially independent. In this issue we have detailed how you can share membership in the Credit Union with your family members. Your direct family relationship opens the door to Credit Union Membership for your family. If your family is not banking with us currently, I highly encourage you to invite them to join Eagle. On the following page we have a wonderful Member referral offer to help you share the Credit Union with family and earn a little extra money for yourself by doing so. Each person you refer who opens a checking account earns you an instant bonus of $25, and you both are entered to win $250! The more people you refer, the better your chances of winning. We’re drawing a monthly winner through the end of the year! Contact us today for your personal referral code to share with your friends and family. Before the Holidays, we completed an upgrade to our phone system to improve our efficiency in answering your calls. For the majority of Members, nothing has changed when calling the Credit Union. In some circumstances, we may ask you for some additional information to better assist you in a prompt manner. I want to thank the team at Eagle for a successful conversion and thank the Membership for their patience during the week of our launch while the team adjusted to the new system. If you're feeling a post-holiday financial crunch, there is still time to apply for the Eagle Holiday Loan. Featuring no application fee, a low fixed rate, and a 12-month repayment term, this popular small dollar loan is perfect for covering extra expenses and paying off purchases made using a high interest-rate credit card. Call us today at (800) 324-5328 to apply. In closing, thank you for your ongoing Membership and loyalty to Eagle Community Credit Union. I've included an article on the back page of this issue discussing the benefits of making Eagle your primary financial institution. You will also find QR codes for our new branch appointment scheduling tool.
