OC catholic Foundation supports education
What We Do
Our Bank In School Program brings financial education directly into participating schools and gives students the opportunity to practice saving money in a real-world setting.
Each month, OC Federal Credit Union visits participating schools to collect deposits from students who have accounts with us. This hands-on experience helps children develop the habit of saving regularly while learning important lessons about budgeting, goal setting, and financial responsibility.
To celebrate and encourage student participation, one student from each participating school is awarded an annual scholarship in recognition of their commitment to saving and participating in the program.
Since 2014, OC Catholic Foundation has donated more than $1,000,000 in the form of grants, scholarships, and charitable contributions to Catholic parishes and schools, plus donations to faith-based nonprofit organizations.
Who We Are
At OC Federal Credit Union, we believe financial education is one of the most powerful tools we can provide for our communities. Through OC Catholic Foundation, a nonprofit 501C3 organization we support programs that help individuals and families build strong financial futures. Membership eligibility is extended through this partnership, allowing us to expand our mission of service throughout Ohio.
As a community-focused financial institution, we are committed to making a lasting impact by teaching financial literacy to children and young adults of all ages. We believe developing healthy money habits early in life creates a foundation for lifelong financial success. Through partnerships with local schools, educators, and families, we provide resources, tools, and real-world learning experiences that help students gain confidence in managing their finances.
Why We Do It
At OC Federal we are about the communities in which we work and live, we believe by giving our time and resources to the schools in the community we can have the greatest impact. By combining classroom instruction, hands-on banking experiences, and innovative digital learning tools, OC Federal Credit Union is helping students build the knowledge and confidence they need to make smart financial decisions for years to come.
