SODUS, NY (November 27, 2023) — This holiday season, Reliant Credit Union is spreading cheer by helping organizations throughout our community. Each branch is supporting a local nonprofit by collecting goods and gifts, making monetary and item donations, and/or volunteering their time.

At Reliant, our ‘people helping people’ philosophy is the foundation of our values,” said Reliant Credit Union’s President & CEO, Pamela Heald. “Each act of kindness, no matter how small, contributes to a brighter and kinder community.
