HANSCOM AFB, Mass.– Hanscom Federal Credit Union presented a $1,000 check to Coast Guard Mutual Assistance (CGMA) to celebrate the grand opening of Hanscom FCU’s newest branch at Coast Guard Base Boston.
CGMA is the official relief society of the U.S. Coast Guard, providing financial aid to the entire Coast Guard family. It promotes financial stability and general well-being through interest-free loans, grants, and financial counseling.
The check was accepted by Captain James “Brett” Millican, the Commanding Officer of Coast Guard Base Boston.
“Our donation to CGMA is especially meaningful to our credit union,” said Hanscom FCU Chairman Paul Marotta, “because we’re equally committed to the financial well-being of our members, providing them with the education, tools, and products to better their lives and their families’ lives. We’re honored to make this contribution to those who serve our country and their families who have need.”
“Our newest branch, though small, will serve a big need for the Coast Guard family,” added Marotta.”We’ll be offering the same top-notch level of service and products our other branches offer in a location that’s convenient for these members. Hanscom FCU’s motto is ‘People Helping People,’ and the US Coast Guard shares that mission. We’re proud to serve these members, and we’re proud to open another branch of Hanscom FCU.”
