EL PASO, Texas–Raiz FCU has signed on as the title sponsor of the Chalk the Block festival through 2025.
The festival, put on by the City of El Paso Museums and Cultural Affairs Department, will take place Oct. 13-15 in the Downtown Arts District.
“We had a wonderful partnership with Raiz last year and are tremendously excited of their continued support for the next three years,” said Cultural Affairs and Recreation Managing Director Ben Fyffe. “Together with Raiz, we are elevating our commitment to our local arts and the love that our City has for this festival.”
Raiz Federal Credit Union noted it was established by seven educators who worked together to create strong roots in our community and make the credit union philosophy of people helping people a reality. Throughout their history, they have helped hundreds of thousands of people in this community make their dreams a reality.
‘Embracing Creativity’
“Raiz is all about embracing creativity and supporting the arts,” said Alex Yu, VP of marketing for Raiz Federal Credit Union. “By partnering with MCAD for Chalk the Block, we’re not only celebrating the rich and unique culture found in El Paso but also investing in its boundless potential. We look forward to extending the spirit of our philosophy throughout the border region over the next three years.”
