Community 1st Credit Union

C1st's President and CEO, Greg Hanshaw, shared his thoughts in a recent letter to the editor "LTE" piece in the Southeast Iowa Union. Greg highlights the Federal Reserve's Regulation II proposal and its impact on #Iowacreditunions if the proposed changes go into effect.

As part of our Drive Forward, Give Back program, C1st was proud to be able to donate $4,500 to the Food Bank of Iowa! #c1stcu

Our staff had the best time volunteering at the first-ever Latino Festival in Bloomfield last weekend! It was a day full of great food, music, and entertainment for all! Thank you, Bloomfield Mainstreet, for putting on a great celebration! We can't wait to be back next year! #c1stcu

Congratulations to Julie Faler, for recently celebrating 10 years of service with C1st! Julie originally started her C1st career as a part-time teller at our Washington Branch. Since then, she has held the roles of Full-Time Teller, Member Service Representative, and Financial Service Representative and was most recently promoted to Personal Representative at our Mt. Pleasant branch.   “I have had people come into my life here that have taught me so much. They took the time to teach me different skills so that I was able to move up within C1st.  I am forever grateful for this.  I have learned so much about credit and financing here, which I use to assist members who come into my office.  I love being able to help members who are struggling and get them into a better financial position so they can purchase a home or a newer car.  I absolutely love the connections that I’ve developed with members, and I love the team I work with; without them, I couldn’t do what I do.”   Thank you for your 10 years of dedicated service to C1st! #WeAreC1st

We recently welcomed our newest group of talented and motivated new hires! Welcome to C1st Kyra, Megan, Meghan, and Tessa! We're excited to have you join our team. #TogetherIsBetter
