Community Support
For them.
At SECU, we’re proud to call Maryland home. We are committed to strengthening and enriching the lives of our neighbors in the communities where we live and work. By fully embracing the credit union philosophy of “People Helping People,” we’re here to help our state thrive.
Being a part of a community means helping when and where you can. SECU supports Maryland communities through a variety of initiatives and programs that bring SECU employees, members, and neighbors together as a force for good.
Corporate Giving
Support Hunger Relief. Spread Kindness. The 2023 Kindness Campaign kicks off in September with a Food Drive in support of food insecure Marylanders. Donations will be collected at SECU financial centers across the state and through a virtual food drive. All donations will directly benefit the Maryland Food Bank – with each pound donation being counted as an act of kindness. SECU has committed to donating 12,000 pounds of food as their initial act of kindness! Suggested Donation Items Include:
- Canned soup, beans, vegetables and fruit
- Pasta and rice
- Oatmeal and breakfast cereal
- Nuts and seeds
SECU MD Foundation
SECU has a long history of giving back to the communities we serve. To help grow our community outreach initiatives, SECU launched the SECU MD Foundation in May 2017.
The SECU MD Foundation’s mission is to create a stronger Maryland by empowering access to education, supporting health and wellness, and serving as a catalyst for community development. To support this mission, the Foundation oversees an annual Scholarship Program, runs Finance Fairs in local schools, and offers Grant Programs.
Scholarship Program
The SECU MD Foundation has proudly supported members furthering their education for over 17 years through our annual scholarship program. Since the program’s inception, we’ve awarded over $930,000 to more than 300 scholars. This year, the program will surpass $1 million in scholarship awards to our members!
Applications are now closed for the 2023 SECU MD Foundation Scholarship Program. Winners will notified by mid-June.
Employee Volunteer Program
When we come together as a team to serve our community, there’s no limit to the impact we can make. SECU employees can take up to 12 hours per quarter to volunteer in the community. While opportunities look slightly different in our current environment, SECU employees have come together over the years to volunteer at food banks, participate in the annual Days of Action, and teach students about financial wellness.
