Our Caring First team supports happier and healthier communities — and it’s what we have been doing for decades. It’s in line with the credit union's legacy of giving and servicing local programs and partnerships with a social purpose. This includes sponsorships of children’s programs such as CHOC, health-related fundraisers such as American Cancer Society’s Relay for Life, financial wellness through our workshops and teen budgeting events, and many other opportunities to help make our neighboring cities a better place. 

 

Online Mastercard Donation Platform

Giving back to our community has never been easier. We've partnered with Mastercard to provide a safe, secure way to support our local charities, and American First Credit Union will match the first $5,000 of your donations made on our partner page. 

You can donate knowing security is built in and your generous funds will take just a few moments to reach your destination. Choose to give as much and as often as you would like with one-time or recurring donations. Donate directly to some of the charities that mean the most to our communities.
