At Members Credit Union, community is more than a word, it’s a responsibility. We believe that when we invest in children, we invest in the future of our communities. That belief is at the heart of our ongoing commitment to organizations that support, nurture, and advocate for children and families across North Carolina.

One such partner is ABC of NC, an incredible organization dedicated to providing diagnostic, therapeutic, and educational services for children with autism and developmental differences. Their work directly impacts families by offering early intervention, support, and hope during critical stages of a child’s development. We are proud to stand alongside them in this mission. Learn more about their life-changing work at www.abcofnc.org.

Recently, Members Credit Union had the honor of presenting ABC of NC with a $5,000 donation, raised entirely through the generosity of our members and employees. This contribution was made possible through two meaningful efforts:

Holiday Heroes Campaign – Our members stepped up during the holiday season by making donations specifically aimed at supporting organizations that strengthen our communities.
Friday Jeans Program – Our Main Office employees voluntarily donated $4 each Friday for the privilege of wearing jeans to work, turning a simple act into a powerful collective impact.

The photos from our visit help tell the story best. In them, you’ll see Members Credit Union team members and ABC of NC staff gathered together. Talking, learning, and celebrating what happens when community partners come together with a shared purpose. Another moment captures the presentation of the $5,000 check, a tangible reminder that small individual contributions can grow into meaningful support for children and families who need it most. Additional images from our time onsite show thoughtful conversation and connection, reinforcing that this partnership is about more than a donation. It’s about relationships and long-term commitment.

Community outreach isn’t something we do once a year; it’s woven into who we are. From our members who give, to our employees who show up with open hearts, every contribution reflects a shared belief that children deserve access to care, support, and opportunities to thrive.

We are grateful to ABC of NC for the work they do every day and for allowing us to be part of their story. Together, we are making a difference—one child, one family, and one community at a time.
