People’s Credit Union in the Community
People's Credit Union is dedicated to supporting and serving the local community and our Community Enhancement Committee is the embodiment of that dedication. The Committee consists entirely of employees who volunteer their time outside of work to organize events that have a positive impact on the communities that we serve.

of books over the summer were given free tickets to the game as well as
special recognition on the field. Over two hundred and fifty books were
read - congratulations and thank you to all the students who made the
night such a success! |
May 2009 - Strong Woman Series
 | Salve Regina’s Ochre Court was the setting for the final
session and celebration of the “Strong Woman Series”. The project was
the brainchild of Dr. Rosalind Vaz, Middletown resident and volunteer
at the Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Community Center. The Series, which
featured a rotating group of volunteer speakers, provided information,
support and empowerment to low-income women from Newport County
interested in skill development, self-improvement and education.
People’s Credit Union was the sponsor of the Series, which ran from
October to through May. |
