Nassau Financial offers financial relief to federal government employees

WESTBURY, NY (January 10, 2019) — As a result of the federal government shutdown, Nassau Financial is offering a special Federal Employee Assistance Program to assist affected Members at this time. With this Assistance Program, federal employees will have the opportunity to manage their finances by skipping loan, credit card, or real estate loan payments up to 90 days, withdrawing funds from Certificate Accounts without penalty, or applying for a Personal Loan up to $5,000 with payments deferred up to 90 days. Federal Government Employees who are non-Members within our field of Membership are welcome to apply. “Providing this Federal Employee Assistance Program demonstrates the differences that credit unions make in the community by providing support to those Federal Employees when it matters most,” said John T. DeCelle, President and CEO of Nassau Financial Federal Credit Union. “As a Credit Union that strives to build long-lasting community efforts and improve upon the financial well-being of each of our Members, we want to continue to assist in every way imaginable,” said DeCelle.
