Security Service Federal Credit Union completes 2016 Military Saves Campaign
SAN ANTONIO, TX (April 15, 2016) — Security Service Federal Credit Union completed its Military Saves campaign with 1,084 new participants. In conjunction with the Department of Defense and its financial readiness campaign, Security Service participated in Military Saves Week to promote greater savings habits to build wealth and reduce debt by providing money saving tips, financial awareness, and encouragement to service men and women.
“Security Service Federal Credit Union is here to help our military members and their families realize financial freedom by educating them on ways they can save for the future,” said Mike Martinez, senior vice president of Military Affairs for Security Service. “Military Saves Week provided a number of service men and women with the opportunity to assess their current financial savings status and generate a plan to take hold of their finances.”
Military Saves advocates the importance of setting financial goals and encourages financial readiness for a lifetime of success. Security Service has participated in the Military Saves program for a number of years and has assisted countless families in their effort to successfully manage their finances.
“Providing comprehensive service-related topics for our Military members is vital to us,” added Martinez. “Savings is one aspect and we want to make sure that service men and women have access to quality resources for themselves and their families.”
Military Saves is part of a nationwide campaign, America Saves, sponsored by the Consumer Federation of America, the Department of Defense, the NASD Investor Education Foundation, and a nationwide network of Defense Credit Unions and Military Banks.
