Once again this year, we will be collecting food donations for our Thanksgiving baskets to share with community members in need! Donations will be accepted from Nov 1 to Nov 16. The Credit Union will provide the turkeys. A list of donation items needed will be available on the Giving Tree in the lobby.

Thank you to our wonderful members who contribute each year so that other families may enjoy a traditional, Thanksgiving dinner.

Here is a few things that participants in last year’s series said about Solid Finances:

“The presenters are all encouraging and positive, which make the information easier to put into practice.”

“I saved over $30 per month on my insurance with the information I learned.”

“I am not rich but I love to learn about getting the most bang for my buck!”

“Sometimes years go by and you should think about things but you never get around to it. These webinars bring those items to the forefront…which is a good thing.”
