WATERBURY — The Firefighters Credit Union has been renamed the FD Community Federal Credit Union, according to Michael Kinne, president and CEO of the Waterbury-based Firefighters Credit Union.
“We are very excited about this name change because we believe it will help increase people’s awareness that this credit union is open to anyone who lives, works, worships, attends school or volunteers in Waterbury and the eight surrounding towns of Cheshire, Middlebury, Naugatuck, Prospect, Plymouth, Thomaston, Watertown and Wolcott,” Mr. Kinne said.
“We believe this new name emphasizes that our credit union is open to all individuals, families and businesses in our area.”
The name change went into effect on Monday, July 30.
This was an on-going project that started in 2001 when the credit union changed from an employee-based credit union to a community-chartered credit union.
“The community charter opened the credit union to individuals other than firefighters, municipal employees and their relatives,” Mr. Kimme said.
The new website address is www.fdcommunityfcu.org.
The credit union’s main office telephone number remains the same at 203-753-9201.
“Celebrating 25 Years of Service: Unite, Ignite, and Empower” “We train and support volunteer leaders of credit unions serving first responders to run stronger, more effective institutions.” “Great things happen when credit unions serving first responders come together. Our face-to-face and on-line interaction is the platform where collaboration begins, and GREAT ideas are generated.”
