In the Community
Giving back to communities we serve
Commitment to building a brighter community goes beyond banking with a credit union spirit. Since 1938 we have worked diligently to support many local initiatives, with a strong focus on financial education. You will notice an emphasis on empowering our young people woven into many of our actions with our Jovia team members volunteering to lead the charge. Each year, we sponsor various arts and cultural events, host free seminars to help educate and enlighten, award thousands of dollars in scholarships to deserving students and lend a hand to community projects in need of extra support.
Making an impact that will last for generations is our ultimate goal. Jovia was founded on the spirit of value, innovation, and giving back. As such, we strive to bring value and resources to the neighborhoods we serve.
