People helping People is the philosophy of credit unions around the world. CASE Credit Union lives and breathes this philosophy by taking an active part in the communities of which we serve. In this article we will share a few of the ways that our outreach benefits others.
At CASE, we are encouraged to offer our time, talent or treasure to help others. O
ur team members are actively involved in many charities and events. From sponsorships to volunteering, you will see how we take pride in being a part of something much larger than ourselves.
Once a quarter the Community Activity Team nominates local charities to support. Drives are held to raise money for the quarterly charity, all supported from credit union staff. The team comes up with very creative ways to raise money, whether a raffle, Christmas giving tree donations, car wash, or holiday treats for sale. When the quarter ends, the designated charity is invited to our all staff meeting and is presented with the funds.
At CASE we care about enriching our community by providing free financial education to youth. Our goal is to help young people become savvy adult spenders and savers and to help area teachers by bringing practical money management tools into the classroom. Our Community Engagement Coordinator, Morgan Cressman works with educators to find the right fit for students from kindergarten to adults.
FREE financial literacy workshops and seminars are provided to members/nonmembers to assist them to achieve their financial success. From identity theft to creating a budget, we have you covered. 
Financial Counseling is a free service offered at CASE Credit Union. Our certified financial counselors will assist members/nonmembers in developing a budget. With many families in our area living paycheck to paycheck, our goal is to help you find ways to make your money last longer. We also offer Credit Counseling; by building your credit you will see your rewards in lower loan rates, insurance rates, finding employment or finding a place to live.
In 2007 CASE board of directors and senior management created CASE Cares, a 501(c)(3) non-profit all volunteer organization. Our mission was to accommodate children of all abilities to have the opportunity to play in a safe, barrier free environment. Our first project was to build a Miracle League Ball Field. The CASE Cares Miracle League Ball Field was completed in the spring of 2012 in DeWitt Charter Township providing children with special needs the opportunity to play baseball regardless of their ability. CASE Cares next project is to build a barrier free playground for the community.
Stop by and say hi when you see us in the community, we would love to tell you our story!

LOCAL CHARITY SUPPORT
Each quarter Community Activity Teams nominate local charities to support. Drives are held to raise money for the selected charity, all supported by credit union staff. The team comes up with very creative ways to raise money, whether a raffle, Christmas giving tree donations, car wash, or holiday treats for sale. When the quarter ends, the designated charity is invited to our all staff meeting and is presented with the funds. [/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
