CFE Federal Credit Union partners with Seminole State College
LAKE MARY, FL (March 12, 2015) — Seminole State College of Florida now has its own affinity debit card through CFE, just in time to celebrate the college’s 50th Anniversary.
The card is CFE’s newest addition to its affinity debit card suite. CFE will donate a portion from each purchase with the Seminole State affinity debit card to the Foundation for Seminole State College.
“We are so proud of the incredible partnership between CFE and Seminole State College,” said Dr. John Gyllin, Executive Director of the Foundation for Seminole State College. “The resources CFE is providing to the Foundation will provide scholarships and program support that will help our students achieve success.”
Recently named the Preferred Credit Union of Seminole State College, CFE’s decision to offer a Seminole State affinity debit card further demonstrates the credit union’s commitment to establishing strong working partnerships with the Central Florida educational community.
“To offer a Seminole State College affinity debit card during the same year as the college’s 50th anniversary is just great timing,” said Joseph A. Melbourne, Jr., CFE President and CEO. “The growth that Seminole State has experienced over the last half century has been substantial. We look forward to strengthening our partnership with Seminole State College.”
CFE was the Presenting Sponsor for the 2015 Dream Gala, hosted by the Foundation for Seminole State College. The Dream Gala, the college’s biggest fundraiser, raised more than $350,000 for student scholarships and academic support.
