In the spirit of “People Helping People”, we will once again host our annual food drive for the River Bend Food Bank during the month of October. If you would like to donate, please feel free to drop off donations at the Credit Union during regular business hours. Most needed items currently include: peanut butter, cereal, canned meats, tuna, soups, chili, stews and canned fruit. These items are simply suggestions, any and all donations would be appreciated.

It's officially Credit Union Month! Why not share us with your family and co-workers? Plus, when you refer a member to GECU, you BOTH win! For a limited time, we are offering a $50 bonus to new members AND the members who refer them! Here’s how it works: Use the Referral Rewards card enclosed in the October SavMor newsletter, or simply have the new member tell us you referred them when they join. When they join and open a checking account with direct deposit, you’ll both be rewarded with $50 cash into your accounts! This offer is only available until October 31st. See the Credit Union for complete details.

Please note that effective October 1st, the Rock Island office will be drive-thru only after 4:30 pm. We will still remain open until 5:00 pm each night, but the lobby will be closed unless you have an appointment.

Credit Union Day is just around the corner- Thursday, October 19th. Here’s what we have planned for the day: Drive-up or walk-up cookout! We'll be set up in the 3rd lane of the drive-thru and serving up freshly grilled brats and hot dogs, chips and a treat between 11:00 am and 2:00 pm. You can take it to-go or sit and and enjoy lunch in a tent we'll have set up in our parking lot. Our Gift Card Giveaway will be online ALL DAY on October 19th. Make to get entered to win one of several gift cards!

The Credit Union will be closed on Monday, October 9th. This is Columbus Day/Indigenous Peoples' Day, but is also CU Kind Day! The Credit Union offices will be closed, however, we will be out and about spreading kindness and Credit Union awareness in the community!
