Seasons Federal Credit Union Receives CDFI Certification

February 19, 2015

Seasons Federal Credit Union has received a CDFI certification from the U.S. Department of the Treasury's Community Development Financial Institutions (CDFI) Fund. The certification is a reflection of Seasons FCU's mission of promoting community development and providing development services in conjunction with its financing activities.

CDFI certification allows Seasons Federal Credit Union to better serve the low and moderate-income consumers and promotes financial presence in Middlesex & the towns served by the credit union in New Haven County. The benefits of certification include access to financial grants from the CDFI Fund, partnership opportunities with other financial institutions and community organizations. Seasons Federal Credit Union is the only credit union in Connecticut to receive this designation.

"Financial wellness is our primary mission at Seasons Federal Credit Union, and together with our members and community partners, CDFI certification will allow us to amplify our efforts to reach those most in need of accessible and affordable financial products and services," said Keith Wiemert, President and CEO of Seasons Federal Credit Union. "We look forward to building capacity and engaging our community in new and exciting ways. The CDFI Certification will allow us to do just that."

"By design, credit unions are a key player in expanding the economic capacity of a community," said Jill Nowacki, President and CEO of The Credit Union League of Connecticut. "Seasons FCU's commitment to their community, exemplified through their pursuit of the CDFI certification, ensures that members of the community they serve will receive access to dignified, affordable financial services and credit that is critical for building assets and achieving financial stability. I am so proud of their long-term commitment to extending these solutions to all members of their community."

Seasons Federal Credit Union is excited to join the 933 certified CDFI's currently in the US, including loan funds, credit unions and community banks. For more information on the US Treasury's CDFI program and initiatives, visit cdfifund.gov.
