GECU Cares

We're passionate about the communities we serve, and are committed to volunteering our time and providing our support with local organizations.

GECU Cares
about our communities

  • Prioritizing our communities
  • Offering our time and support
  • Making a positive impact

Since GECU was founded in 1954, we've been committed to giving back and investing our time in the communities we serve. Our GECU Cares program allows us to maximize our impact by giving team members the chance to volunteer or make monetary donations to local organizations. In addition to these efforts, GECU also provides financial support to numerous local organizations each year through sponsorships, donations, and scholarships, furthering our mission to uplift and empower the communities we proudly serve.

Do Good Program

While we introduce a variety of volunteer opportunities each month, we recognize that many of our team members are passionate about causes they personally support. Through our Do Good program, we encourage them to volunteer independently with nonprofits that resonate with them, empowering them to make a meaningful impact in their own way.
