Let’s celebrate community with #5PointKindness.
For 85 years, we’ve kept community at the heart of everything we do. And this year, we’re giving back to our communities in a new way.
Here at 5Point Credit Union, you make us the organization we are today. Whether you’re one of our great members or one of the many wonderful people who make up the areas we serve, we’re grateful to be part of your community. That’s why, to thank you for 85 years and counting, you may see our team members out and about performing 5Point’s Random Acts of Kindness.
These are tokens of our appreciation meant to brighten your day. You don’t have to be a 5Point member to take part in the celebration – we’re just happy to have you in the community! So, if you see one of our #5PointKindness t-shirts around town, stop and say hi. We’re always thrilled to share a conversation, a smile and a little bit of kindness with the neighborhoods where we live and work.
