After more than 20 years of a long-standing partnership, Neches Federal Credit Union is now the official credit union of Lamar University.
“This partnership is a true testament to ours and Neches Federal Credit Union’s commitment in creating meaningful and lasting partnerships in our community,” Lamar University President Jaime Taylor said in the press release.
The official partnership expansion includes a new, fully self-service Neches Federal Credit Union branch inside the Setzer Student Center where members can inquire about their account with Crystal Jordan, Campus Connect MSR. The branch also includes an ATM/ITM. The machine functions as an ATM 24/7. However, one can also tap the screen of the ITM, Interactive Teller Machine to speak with a live teller at Neches FCU as early as 7 a.m., six days a week. Members can withdraw cash, deposit cash or checks, pay on a loan, transfer funds and more. For those who are on the go and want to enjoy the ITM convenience from their vehicle, there is a Neches GO! located outside of the Neches Federal Credit Union Arena at the Montagne Center.
Neches FCU has special promotions only available at the branch on campus, such as limited edition Big Red T-shirts, 40 oz spirit tumblers, and the Lamar University debit card.
“We are so excited to expand our partnership and to be a resource for students and staff on campus at Lamar University,” Charlee Chelette, Community Impact Officer at Neches Federal Credit Union. “In addition to our new branch on campus, Neches FCU will host free financial literacy seminars, participate in events across campus, and much more this semester.”
There will be six free financial literacy seminars with LU Money Management available for students this semester covering various financial topics that college-aged students might want to learn more about, such as navigating auto buying, building credit from scratch and more. Registration for the seminars is on the Lamar University website.
