In the Community

While assisting a long-time member, CBC found out that his lifelong pet died unexpectedly. He was broken-hearted and it brought him to tears just talking about it.

Our member shared a photo with us with him and his dog, Capone; the Camarillo team enhanced the photo and printed a verse about how pets are much more than just that. Our pets end up becoming family and loved as so.

Both items were put in a frame and presented to our member during his next visit. He was moved by our kindness and brought tears again.

Our loyal member of 23 years, Alan Berry, came in to complete a transaction with a team member on a Friday. He is a retired US Navy veteran, and always frequents the Port Hueneme Branch. During their conversation Jonathan uncovered that he was a huge Patriots fan, and was attending his first Super Bowl this year to watch his favorite team compete for the championship.

In an effort to show our gratitude for Mr. Berry’s membership, we decided to gift him a commemorative Super Bowl 53 hat along with a Patriots Super Bowl banner. Mr. Berry was speechless with gratitude upon receiving the gift from the branch and told us a neat story of how the Super Bowl trip came to fruition.

Joan has been a member of CBC since 2013. She regularly visits the Ventura branch, bringing with her every week a smile and a box of donuts. Additionally, she sends a holiday card to the branch yearly with a picture of her dog, Dustie. The Ventura branch wanted to make her day the same way she always makes ours.

The Ventura team put together a toy box for Dustie filled with treats and toys. Ms.Shugar was thrilled with the MME and was almost brought to tears.

CBC Federal Credit Union is passionate about community involvement and we know that our team members share the same passion. Therefore, CBC has added a Helping Hands Program, commonly known as VTO (volunteer time off), to its list of benefits. The purpose of this program is to:

• Enhance and improve the communities in which we live
• Enrich and inspire our team members
• Provide new experiences to the community and team

As a part of this program, CBC will schedule time off for its team members to volunteer for a charitable organization. CBC makes it easy and convenient for our staff to serve during working hours. If you are a charitable organization and would like to request volunteer support, please email [email protected]u.org or call 805-988-2151 ext. 5691.

Once a month our team gets together to volunteer and in June we went to Food Share. A total of 14 volunteers in a matter of two hours put together 2,400+ meals together for many Ventura County residents who are food insecure. Food Share was impressed with our ability to work together and knock out an impressive four pallets of food!
