Credit Union Members Go Green

Lockheed Federal Credit Union Offers
Environmentally Sound Opportunity

Burbank, Calif. (April 22, 2008) – Lockheed Federal Credit Union has presented another way to grow with the financial institution.

LFCU made a donation this month to ensure more than 500 trees are planted in a damaged forest, thanks to help from its members and the Arbor Day Foundation. The credit union hosted a go-green promotion in March, offering members the opportunity to reduce paper clutter in favor of electronic statements.

“The campaign was a great way for the Credit Union to help members understand the benefits of electronic statements,” said Andrea Carpenter, Senior Vice President of Marketing for LFCU. “E-Statements are never lost or stolen in the mail, so they help to reduce the risk of identity theft. The credit union maintains two years’ worth of statements online, so they are always just a click away.”

LFCU made a donation to the Arbor Day Foundation on behalf of every member who made the switch to receive paperless statements.

Electronic statements also provide the benefit of receiving each monthly statement the same day it is ready. LFCU stores e-Statements online for up to two years, giving members access anytime, anywhere. As well as being good for the environment, e-Statements are convenient and secure.
