As we jump into 2024, we at Central Willamette are proud to reflect on 2023 - a year filled with community involvement, exciting new products, and financial education.
Investing in Our Community:
Throughout 2023, we were deeply engaged in supporting the communities we serve.
- Children's Miracle Network, Habitat for Humanity, and Sacred Heart Medical Center: We participated in fundraising throughout the community, demonstrating our commitment to healthcare and essential services.
Our team members actively volunteered their time and expertise to several great events:
-
Mock interviews at LBCC Youth Job Fair: Members of our team were actively involved in preparing the younger generation for careers during mock interviews.
-
American Foundation for Suicide Prevention Darkness Walk: Several of our team members participated in this great, annual walk.
Empowering Financial Well-Being:
We understand that financial literacy is crucial and strive to make it accessible to everyone. We offered a variety of resources and educational initiatives throughout the year, including:
-
Webinars: "ChatGPT, AI and You," "Origins of Digital Cash," and "Understanding Cryptocurrency & Blockchain" explored emerging technologies and their impact on the financial landscape.
-
E-books: "How to Recession-Proof Your Finances" and "How to Recession-Proof Your Business" offered timely guidance for navigating economic challenges.
-
New Frauds & Scams page: This online resource equips members with the knowledge to protect themselves from financial scams. It is regularly updated with the latest information.
Looking Forward to 2024:
As we enter 2024, we remain committed to being a valued partner in our communities. We plan to continue supporting local organizations, providing financial education resources, and developing innovative products and services that meet our members' needs. We are excited to see what the future holds and to continue making a positive impact together.
