Saluda Branch Coming Soon!
Neighbors United Federal Credit Union is embarking on an exciting new chapter in its storied history by breaking ground on a new branch location in Saluda, South Carolina.
The groundbreaking ceremony took place on November 10th, 2023 and brought together the Board of Directors and Senior Management Team along with officials from the City of Saluda to celebrate the future site of its newest branch.
The decision to establish a presence in Saluda reflects Neighbors United's dedication to fostering financial inclusivity and community development. The new branch will not only bring the credit union's comprehensive range of financial services to Saluda residents but also contribute to the local economy by creating new employment opportunities.
"We are thrilled to break ground on our Saluda branch, a testament to our commitment to reaching more individuals with our 'people helping people' ethos," remarked Elizabeth Orma, CEO at Neighbors United Federal Credit Union. "This expansion aligns with our mission to empower communities through accessible and personalized financial solutions. We look forward to becoming an integral part of the Saluda community and building lasting relationships with our new members."
Juntos Avanzamos Proclamation Designation
Neighbors United Federal Credit Union is thrilled to announce its designation as a Juntos Avanzamos credit union, making history as the first credit union in South Carolina to receive this prestigious recognition. This achievement reflects Neighbors United's unwavering commitment to serving and empowering Hispanic consumers, regardless of immigration status, and fostering financial inclusion within the community.
Juntos Avanzamos, which translates to "Together We Advance," is a designation bestowed upon credit unions that demonstrate their dedication to assisting unbanked and underbanked populations, particularly those from the Hispanic community, while safeguarding them from predatory lending practices.
South Carolina's Hispanic population is a vital and growing part of the state's community, and Neighbors United Federal Credit Union is proud to be at the forefront of promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion. With this proclamation, Neighbors United reaffirms its mission to provide financial services to all members of the community, embracing their unique needs and goals.
To attain the Juntos Avanzamos accreditation, Neighbors United Federal Credit Union underwent a rigorous application process, showcasing its commitment to Spanish-speaking individuals through inclusive underwriting policies, comprehensive financial education initiatives, and affordable loan offerings. Notably, the credit union is recognized as a leading ITIN lender, extending financial support to those without legal immigration status or those ineligible to obtain a social security number.
"We are dedicated to creating opportunities for financial growth and security within South Carolina's Hispanic community," said Elizabeth Orma, CEO of Neighbors United Federal Credit Union. "Our team is deeply committed to providing exceptional service and empowering our members to achieve their financial aspirations."
Neighbors United Federal Credit Union is now among the select few credit unions in the United States, with less than 120 nationwide, to earn the esteemed Juntos Avanzamos accreditation.
