BOISE, Idaho–Mountain America Credit Union here said it has partnered with the Boise State University Alumni Association (BSUAA) to offer financial education opportunities and contribute to the BSUAA in two different ways.
Mountain America said it will provide onsite financial education classes on various topics to BSUAA members, graduating seniors, and at Broncos of the Last Decade (BOLD) events.
In addition, to mark the alumni association's 50th anniversary, Mountain America is also offering a 50/50 bonus to new members who open a MyStyle Checking account. New credit union members will receive a $50 bonus and Mountain America will contribute an additional $50 to BSUAA to cover one year of BSUAA dues for the member. These dues are used to fund financial scholarships and programs, the credit union said.
Among the new offerings is a Boise State Alumni Association Visa Rewards Credit Card offered by Mountain America from which a percentage of each purchase benefits the BSUAA. The new card features two Boise State design options, plus the benefits of low rates, a generous rewards program, no balance transfer fees and no annual fee, according to Mountain America.
"We think this partnership with the BSUAA is a win-win. Mountain America is proud to support the alumni association and future Bronco alumni," said Spencer Carver, assistant vice president of select employer group development, with the credit union. "Additionally, Mountain America can help even more people seeking the support of our excellent financial education resources."
