America's Christian Credit Union Committed to The Community
On August 11th, America's Christian Credit Union (ACCU) celebrated the remodel of its Azusa Branch with a Grand Re-Opening and Ribbon Cutting Ceremony. Over 60 officials, partners, business owners and residents from Azusa, Glendora and the surrounding cities came to show their support.
In June, after almost nine years of operation in the city of Azusa, the branch underwent a complete remodel to enhance banking experience for members and better reflect their service values and engaging culture. The Azusa branch, located at 924 East Alosta Avenue, serves local members as well as the Azusa Pacific University (APU) & Citrus College communities. The purpose for the remodel was to modernize the branch décor and to help members feel a sense of ACCU's commitment to the community.
The celebration was kicked off by Steven Castro, CEO of the Azusa Chamber of Commerce, who, along with Lonnie De La Garza, Chamber Chairman, presented ACCU with an Award Certificate for the remodel and the excellent services they provide. Key leaders and partners in the surrounding cities followed with remarks of their gratitude for ACCU's contribution in the community. Dr. Don Davis, Vice President of APU commented, "We appreciate your partnership with APU, and we thank you for being here and living out your mission to Reach, Serve and Teach." Pastor Rick MacDonald, Senior Pastor of Azusa House of Prayer church added, "[ACCU] is not just another bank; they are about building God's Kingdom. I appreciate their heart for adoption and applaud their commitment to help find loving and safe homes for children in foster care and orphanages."
Mendell L. Thompson, President/CEO of ACCU, was pleased with the turn-out and deeply grateful for the overwhelming support from the community. Thompson exclaimed, "We appreciate being a part of this terrific town. For over 57 years our mission has been to Reach, Serve and Teach, and we couldn't be more thankful to live out that mission right here in the Azusa community."
The Azusa Branch will be offering in-branch specials and fun prizes throughout the month of August, in celebration of the newly remodeled facility. Stop by to see the new design and learn about how ACCU can help you meet your financial goals.
