Affinity FCU Sponsors Local Environmental Clean-Up Day
As part of our commitment to environmental stewardship, Affinity FCU recently sponsored and participated in a community-wide Environmental Clean-Up Day.

- Planting of 50 new trees in community parks
- Installation of recycling bins in high-traffic areas

We're proud to play a role in preserving the natural beauty of our communities and promoting environmental consciousness among our members and neighbors.
