Martinsville, VA (December 17, 2025) |
ValleyStar Credit Union is excited to announce the expansion of its partnership with Patrick & Henry Community College to launch the Financial Fundamentals Program. This comprehensive free service that ValleyStar provides is a financial education initiative aiming to provide the entire P&HCC student body with essential financial knowledge and skills as well as incentivize students to take proactive steps toward financial literacy.
Building on a successful program initially offered to P&HCC student-athletes last year, the expanded collaboration now ensures all students have access to vital resources to confidently manage their finances and build a robust financial future.
To support this initiative, ValleyStar Credit Union is donating $20,000 to the P&HCC Foundation to enhance financial literacy resources and bolster student success initiatives.
“We are grateful for ValleyStar’s continued commitment to our students. Expanding this partnership will provide meaningful financial education that empowers our campus community and supports long-term student success.”
— Dr. Greg Hodges, President, Patrick & Henry Community College
ValleyStar Credit Union CEO Mike Warrell highlighted the significance of this investment in the future, “We are thrilled to contribute positively to this community. Education is one of our core pillars and ensuring today’s youth have a strong financial foundation is incredibly important to us. This partnership allows us to equip students with real-life financial skills that will benefit them long after graduation.”
This collaborative initiative reflects a shared commitment between ValleyStar Credit Union and P&HCC to enhance community strength through education, empowerment, and long-term personal success.
