Mutual Matters- Summer 2017

Message From the CEO 

We continue to see growth in 2017. Membership is up, loans are up and we have great products available for our members.

Mutual Savings continues to be involved in our communities by participating in philanthropic events hosted by Make-A-Wish Alabama, the Muscular Dystrophy Association and Relay for Life. Individual branches have also participated in local events and will continue to do so throughout the fall and winter months.

By now I’m sure you’ve noticed the VISA® information throughout the branches and on the website. Our new VISA® Rewards and VISA® Blue cards are now available. These cards offer no annual fee and an APR rate as low as 9.90% for those that qualify. Stop by any branch or visit the website to pick up or complete an application. You’ll enjoy 0% interest for the first 6 months on balance transfers.

This has been a positive year thus far. I look forward to sharing with you new products, such as remote deposit capture, that will be rolling out soon. As always, Mutual Savings continues to work for you.

Sincerely,
Kendall Speed
CEO/President

Mutual Savings Supports Make-A-Wish Alabama

In an effort to give back to the community, Mutual Savings Credit Union is supporting several philanthropic organizations this year, the first being Make-A-Wish Alabama. Make-A-Wish Alabama’s mission is to grant the wishes of children with life-threatening illnesses, right here in our own backyard!

On April 21, 2017 members of the Mutual Savings Marketing Department attended Rivals for Wishes, an event fundraising for Make-A-Wish Alabama. The event played on the iconic rivalry between Alabama and Auburn football. The event featured gourmet tailgate food and games, and had Alabama and Auburn players and coaches in attendance!

Attendees got to hear from football players and coaches but more importantly got to hear from Wish Kids – children who have received wishes during their illnesses.

Mutual Savings also sponsored another Make-A-Wish event, MayFest, on May 6, 2017 at Avondale Brewing Company. The event served local food and drinks, and featured live music from local artists, The Drennan Brothers and Jeremy Moore Music.

Mutual Savings is proud to support Make-A-Wish Alabama!
