Your Voice Matters: Tell Congress Don’t Tax My Credit Union

As a valued member, you can help us preserve the way your credit union (and credit unions nationwide) provide valuable and cost-effective services. This is especially important in today’s economic environment. Members need a trusted financial partner committed to helping them maintain and improve their financial well-being.

As not-for-profit financial institutions, credit unions do not pay federal corporate income tax on profits. Credit unions, including First Financial, reinvest earnings to members through lower loan rates, higher deposit rates and personal service. Now, some in Washington want to change that by taxing credit unions.

Members Helping Members Update

The wildfires had a profound impact on many of our members and staff. As a result, we introduced our Members Helping Members fundraiser to provide much-needed support to those affected.

We are pleased to share that, thanks to your generosity, we have raised nearly $9,000 thus far as well as tangible items!  Your generous donations will be distributed to your fellow members and First Financial staff directly impacted by the fires.

First Financial staff recognizes the importance of giving back, particularly with our community volunteerism, charitable giving, and through the partnerships we have created in the educational community.
