SECU Foundation

SECU Foundation

The SECU Foundation promotes local and community development by primarily funding high impact projects in the areas of housing, education, healthcare and human services. The State Employees’ Credit Union Board of Directors has chartered the SECU Foundation to help identify and address community issues that are beyond the normal scope of State Employees’ Credit Union. While individual members may not have a large impact; collectively and cooperatively the Foundation can go a long way toward helping solve problems in our neighborhoods, schools and our community at large.

SECU Foundation was established as a vehicle to “drive” the Credit Union philosophy of “People Helping People®”. The Foundation was recently recognized nationally by receiving the Herb Wegner Award in 2008 for Outstanding Program. SECU Foundation has also received local recognition by receiving the Dora Maxwell Social Responsibility Award.

Impact

The SECU Foundation “People Helping People” Scholarships were established in 2004, and are awarded to students enrolled full time in any degree program.
