The Causes That Drive Us

We support our communities year-round, focusing our giving on the causes where we can make the biggest difference.

Service & Safety

First Responders
First Responders put their lives on the line to protect and defend the communities in which we live, and it’s our responsibility to have their backs.
Military Heroes
Service Credit Union was founded on Pease Air Force Base in 1957, and we’ve never stopped supporting our veterans and active-duty military.
Mental Health
A key component to overall health is mental health, and we’re committed to supporting access to mental health services in our communities.

Food Insecurity & Basic Needs
Supporting organizations that focus on providing food, safety, and well-being in the community.

Investing in education helps foster the next generation of community leaders.
