Here for the Community
The Park Community Credit Union Foundation believes in supporting our employees and the communities they care about. Through programs like the Community Service Fund and Employee Assistance Fund, we provide opportunities to give back and receive support in times of need.
Community Service Fund
Park Community Credit Union encourages employees to volunteer for the causes that matter most to them and provides paid time off for community service. Every year, employees can request a grant from the Foundation to the charity at which they perform their community service hours.
Employee Assistance Fund
The Employee Assistance Fund is an emergency fund administered by the Foundation to help Park Community employees during a time of hardship.
