SPOTLIGHT   

Christine Walker has been with Suncoast Credit Union for over twelve years. They have a program, Team Suncoast, where they encourage their employees to go out and volunteer. Christine volunteered in our office and said, "I chose UWCC because they use funds responsibly and effectively. I also love that it's local and helps my own community members!"
Suncoast approaches philanthropic efforts with one mission in mind - improve the lives of our members. Through our Team Suncoast employee volunteer program and the Suncoast Credit Union Foundation charitable donations, we do just that.

Loaned Executive Program
If your company has a volunteer program, please give UWCC a call at 941-627-3539. We have many volunteer opportunities to customize to your availability whether it's a couple hours a month or one day per week.
