Your Credit Union is committed to working with members in order to help them achieve and maintain financial independence. An important part of this support and guidance is making members aware of, and adopt, straightforward everyday financial behaviors that promote financial health.
Whether you are a long-time member, starting your first job, or helping your child learn the basics of responsible money management, we have an informative range of resources to help you on your way.
Financial Wellness Check
You visit your physician for a checkup — to identify potential issues and learn about preventive/corrective measures if needed. The same principle applies to our finances. That’s why we developed our Financial Wellness Check. It’s a proven resource to keep you “financially healthy” by growing wealth efficiently and avoiding costly financial pitfalls. We recommend — like a physical — at least one checkup a year. In less than 5 minutes, you can receive a personalized Financial Plan to help you build a better financial life.
Zogo
We’ve partnered with Zogo to bring you a fun, mobile-first way to build financial skills—one quick lesson at a time. Zogo offers bite-sized, gamified courses on topics like budgeting, saving, credit, investing, and more, and you can earn points as you learn (redeemable for gift cards once rewards are active). It’s an easy way to boost your financial confidence anywhere, anytime. When you download Zogo, be sure to use our access code: FIGFCU.

We don’t promise to tell you what you want to hear – but like a good friend, will always tell you what you need to hear for financial wellbeing. The rest is up to you!
