Community Reinvestment Act

First Fed is committed to supporting the communities we serve. We strive to live this value daily. This commitment to the community means that we take our life-long relationships within the communities we serve very seriously.

We continue to serve the varied needs of our communities by contributing time, talent, services, and charitable donations. Whether it is providing credit for affordable housing or other community development lending, providing financial literacy education, or supporting local charitable causes, we believe it is our duty and privilege to give back to the individuals, families, businesses, and communities First Fed serves.

First Fed encourages staff to volunteer and serve others whenever possible. Over the years, our employees have donated countless hours serving local organizations, schools, churches, non-profits and more.
