As we prepare for Thanksgiving, Sebasticook Valley Federal Credit Union wants to take a moment to express our sincere gratitude to the people who make our mission possible: our dedicated members and hardworking employees. It’s a season of opportunity to reflect on the true meaning of our credit union — a community of people committed to supporting one another, sharing in each other’s successes, and building a brighter future together.
Thank You to Our Members: The Heart of Sebasticook Valley FCU
Our members are the foundation of our cooperative. When you join Sebasticook Valley FCU, you’re not just opening an account — you’re becoming a part-owner of a not-for-profit financial institution that prioritizes people over profits. Unlike traditional banks, where profits often flow to shareholders, Sebasticook Valley FCU is structured to return value to our members in ways that directly impact their financial well-being.
We operate with a cooperative spirit, which means your deposits can help fund another member’s low-interest loan, building a system where everyone benefits. It’s this commitment to our members’ financial health that makes us proud to say that our success is a shared success. Thank you for trusting us to be your financial partner — we’re honored to serve you.
Appreciating Our Employees: Personalized Service and Community Care
Our employees bring dedication, expertise and warmth to each of our credit union branches. They don’t just work here; they’re members of the community who understand the unique financial needs and goals of our members. Their commitment to personalized service helps us create an environment where every member feels valued and supported.
Beyond their day-to-day responsibilities, our employees also go above and beyond to serve the community. Whether they’re volunteering at local fairs to raise funds for hunger relief, supporting cancer research initiatives, or educating students about financial literacy, they embody the spirit of giving back. Our employees are the backbone of our community-focused efforts, making a meaningful impact that extends well beyond our branches.
