expands the Community Choice footprint, which dates back to
1935. As we continue on a journey making financial services
available to more and more Michigan communities, we are
reminded that our roots trace back to serving the best interests
of our members through great service, low rates on loans and
convenient access to products and services.

Community Choice Foundation
gives big to local communities
The Credit Union is committed to the philosophy of people
helping people.
T
he Community Choice Foundation has generously supported countless
Michigan non-profits that improve the lives of some of our region’s most
vulnerable families. The Foundation remains committed to organizations
such as Vista Maria, Gleaners’ Food Bank, Cass Community Social Services,
Kids Without Cancer and Life Remodeled.
The Community Choice Foundation is also committed to the future of our state.
By awarding more than $705,000 in college scholarships to students who
pledge to stay in Michigan after graduation, the Community Choice Foundation
encourages our best and brightest to use their time, talents and education to
improve Michigan’s future.
Community Choice Credit Union began when a group of neighbors agreed to pool their financial resources
by placing $5 in a bowl. This money was available for those individuals to borrow in a time of need.
Community Choice Credit Union continues the tradition of strength in numbers through its annual Give Big
Weekend. For one weekend every year, Community Choice Credit Union team members and their families
Give Big™ by volunteering together with a variety of area non-profits. Community Choice team members
have spent thousands of hours volunteering with organizations such as Gleaners’ Food Bank, The
American Red Cross, Vista Maria Shelter, The Detroit Zoo, Forgotten Harvest, The Michigan Miracle League
and area parks. The Foundation also donates toy bears to local fire departments to give to a child when
they’ve experienced a traumatic event.
We invite you to get involved with our Foundation through volunteering with us during Give Big Weekend,
encouraging friends or family to apply for a scholarship, or by contributing a donation to help us maximize
our community outreach initiatives. In addition, we encourage businesses to sponsor Scholars who will play
a pivotal role in the future of our great state.
