At Wright-Patt Credit Union (WPCU), we are here to help you save better, spend and manage your money wisely, borrow smarter and plan for your future! These four principals are the foundation to achieving financial flexibility and freedom. One of the ways we help our members like you and our partner-employees on their own personal financial journey is through the various financial learning opportunities we offer. Our staple program, Finances in Focus, is a 5-week series we recently completed at the end of February 2022.
We took our participants through the four pillars of Financial Flexibility and Freedom: Save, Spend, Borrow and Plan no matter where they were on their personal financial journey. Class participants who are just starting out to those who have been financially savvy for years took away nuggets of information to help them succeed. Budgeting tips, savings opportunities and more were highlighted in each class.
Randi Salyer, Finances in Focus host and Community Development Rep at WPCU says, “My favorite topic we covered was fraud and identity theft. We were lucky to have an expert from our fraud department with us to discuss current trends, what to watch out for, and how to protect ourselves. Even I learned something new!"
This last series, we were able to help over 50 attendees and are looking to help even more members, partner-employees and community members in the future! This 5-part series is open to members and non-members alike. We'll be offering more sessions of the Finances in Focus 5-week series in 2022.
