It's hard to believe, but 2022 is coming to a close. As the year wraps up, you may be reflecting on the last eleven months and assessing the goals you set—professionally, personally, and financially.
Financially, perhaps you added to your emergency fund or finally paid off that credit card bill. If so, congratulations! Or, perhaps you went off course and did too much impulsive shopping. If so, you’re not alone.
Whatever your situation, you may be determined to head into 2023 with new financial goals. Before flipping the calendar, you might want to review a few year-end financial tips before saying goodbye to 2022.

When putting food on the table is a daily challenge, this time of year can be especially difficult for some families. Rising food and fuel costs are putting an added strain on many local households.
For more than a decade, Mid Oregon Credit Union has partnered with its members and the community to bring holiday cheer to local families through Holiday Dough. Since its inception in 2011, Holiday Dough has raised almost $30,000 for local charities in Central Oregon.
The fundraiser kicked off November 14 and will continue through December 16. We invite you to stop by a branch, call our Contact Center at 541-382-1795 or donate online. Donations stay in the area where they are collected and will benefit local community nonprofits.
Plus, this year we're sharing some "dough" with you! When you visit the Holiday Dough page, be sure to view and download the winning recipes from our Mid Oregon Team Cookie Contest! Let us know your favorites. Thank you for your support! |

You might be ready to celebrate the holidays away from home, but is your debit or credit card?
Setting your travel notification when your travelling out-of-state or internationally just got easier as we have added this feature to our digital banking!
If you're traveling to an area not far from home, it's unlikely that any credit card charges will be declined. However, the further you travel, the greater the chance of charges being declined. Setting up a travel notification also helps strengthen the security of your accounts and prevent fraud. Travelling can be stressful, don’t let credit card issues ruin your good time
