BRECO FEDERAL CREDIT UNION

Last Thursday, our CEO, Joshua Poole, CUERME, MBA, took part in a panel discussion hosted by Luminate, where he shared his experience with the African- American Credit Union Coalition Cross-Cultural Exchange Program. He offered valuable insights and did a wonderful job. His words reminded us that learning from others is key to driving meaningful change.

Yesterday was an absolute blast at Entergy River Bend Station! 🎉 We loved connecting with employees, chatting about how we can support them, and sharing some amazing giveaways—from gas cards to portable battery jump starters. The energy (pun intended!) was incredible, and we can't wait to be back next Wednesday for more fun, great conversations, and meaningful connections! See you soon, River Bend team! 

This holiday season has been a whirlwind, and we’re loving every moment! Over Thanksgiving, we partnered with Starbucks and Carter’s Supermarket in Walker to give back by purchasing $1,500 worth of coffee and groceries for the community. It’s been an incredible season of giving, and we’re grateful for the chance to make a difference in our communities.

Last week, we had the pleasure of attending two fantastic events: the Baton Rouge Credit Union Charity Golf Tournament and The Greater Baton Rouge Association of Realtors' Realtor Expo. It’s always a great time connecting with familiar faces and building new relationships. At the golf tournament, we were proud to sponsor a hole, provide refreshments, and sponsor a team, all in support of the Baton Rouge Children's Advocacy Center. We also had a great time in the Wild Wild West at the Realtor Expo, an event we always look forward to.

We had a fantastic time participating in the Baton Rouge Police Department's Boo with the Blue! 🎃🍬 It’s always a pleasure connecting with our community, sharing treats, and making memories with families. 

Another year, another fantastic day at the Central High School Career Fair! We loved meeting all the juniors and seniors who stopped by our BRECO booth to chat about their future plans and how we can help along the way. We’re proud to support the next generation in reaching their dreams! 

We were thrilled to bring a little "Taste of New Orleans" to Livingston Parish Chamber of Commerce's 29th Annual Golf Outing! The creativity from all the sponsors was inspiring, and we had an absolute blast. Thank you to everyone who stopped by, played a round of cornhole with us, and enjoyed some delicious beignets. 

Last Friday was a great day for BRECO FCU! 🎉 We celebrated our Sherwood Branch's 1-year anniversary with a ribbon cutting, delicious jambalaya, and incredible local support. We also had the pleasure of sponsoring Riverbend Station's annual Craig Stout Tournament once again. It was a day filled with community, fun, and teamwork!

What a wonderful way to celebrate International Credit Union Day! Today, Congressman Garret Graves met with our credit unions to discuss significant policy changes shaping our industry, and we had the chance to thank him for his continued support. International Credit Union Day is a time to reflect on the rich history of the credit union movement, celebrate its achievements, and recognize the hard work of those who make it all possible. It’s also a day to share the meaningful experiences of our members. Special thanks to Luminate for organizing this impactful event and Neighbors Federal Credit Union for hosting! At BRECO, we are proud to be part of a movement that puts people over profit. Today, and every day, we’re committed to making a difference in our members' lives and our community.
