Aside from providing families throughout southwest Missouri with outstanding financial services, we also provide educational opportunities to help our members make the most out of their finances. Our seminars are a perfect example. We'll soon be holding a Credit Scoring Seminar and a Homebuyer's Seminar. These are great opportunities to learn from the experts on topics that hit close to home. In addition, we look for ways to give back to our members, such as with our 1% vehicle loan rebate. We are thrilled that so many of our members are taking advantage of this excellent program. Anyone who refinances an eligible vehicle loan can refinance it at Postal Federal Community Credit Union for a 1% cash-back rebate--or we'll apply the credit to your loan. It's a great benefit for members, and it's our way of saying thanks to our members. We truly appreciate your business. 
Programs like this 1% cash rebate (or "Ree-bate!" as our friendly frog would say) are just one more way the folks here at PFCCU are working hard to be the very best. That's our reputation, and we're living up to it each and every day, with your help. Thanks for the opportunity. Let your dreams take root.
