By The Community, For The Community

At the beginning of every year, Aeroquip Credit Union chooses charities to raise money for! We participate in Jean Days, Popcorn Sales and other various fundraisers to raise funds for them! Along with supporting our selected organizations, Aeroquip Credit Union supports the community by attending community events, sponsoring community events, and volunteering in our community.

 

Our 2026 Charity is SOAR Cafe & Farms! Learn more about them here.
