CU Make a Difference Day 2025: Turning Plastic into Purpose
On a recent federal holiday when our branches were closed, our staff came together to turn your donated plastic grocery bags into 15 sleep mats for the temporarily unhoused in our community, an inspiring collaboration with our community partners at Americorps St. Louis.
This hands-on team building project brought together our staff in the spirit of our "All In" values and community support.
We would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone who donated the bags used in our project. Together we are proving that small actions can lead to big impact!

Thank you for your school supply donations!



We are thrilled to share the successful results of our School Supply Collection Drive. Thanks to your incredible generosity and support, we collected 4,484 items for the Little Bit Foundation, an organization dedicated to helping students and families thrive, especially in the wake of the recent tornado that affected so many of our neighborhoods. They currently partner with 54 school communities across the St. Louis area, serving 17,000 students.
We are proud to be part of such a compassionate and generous community. Thank you for joining us in supporting our local students and making this drive a resounding success.
West Community recognized as "Business of the Year" at ServMO's Show Me Service Awards

“It was an honor to be nominated by our partners at AmeriCorps St. Louis,” praised Lori Hudson, Community Outreach Manager, who attended the ceremony in Jefferson City.

Teaching Financial Literacy
We know knowledge is power. Throughout the year, we host numerous webinars and seminars that cover a variety of financial topics. We believe there is a direct line from the financial success of our communities to our success.

Volunteering in the Community
We are committed to service and helping our communities thrive. We ask every employee to participate in volunteer opportunities throughout the year to support our local schools, charities, chambers and municipalities.

How shredding can protect your identity.
Even if you’re really careful about the information you put online, your printed files can still be an easy target for identity thieves and should never go directly in the trash.
To help you protect your personal information, we periodically host shred days throughout the STL area. We bring a data destruction truck to our parking lots where you can shred your outdated sensitive documents for FREE.
