Boston’s First Responders Come Together to Support the South Boston Neighborhood House in Honor of Joseph "Dodo" Nee

Boston’s First Responders Come Together to Support the South Boston Neighborhood House in Honor of Joseph "Dodo" Nee

In honor of Joseph “Dodo” Nee, a lifelong supporter of the South Boston community and an inspiration to so many, Boston’s First Responders came together last night to present the South Boston Neighborhood House with a check donation of $7,500. The generous donation will provide back to school supplies and clothing to local students in the community.

This donation was made possible by members of the Boston Firefighters Credit Union, Boston Fire Department, Boston Police Department & Massachusetts Fallen Heroes/Veterans Edge to uphold the incredible legacy and efforts in which their friend, veteran, and fellow firefighter, Joseph Nee did for the South Boston community.

“Assisting the South Boston Neighborhood House was a seamless decision between Boston Firefighters Credit Union, Boston Police, Boston Fire, Mass Fallen Heroes and the Nee family to engage in an effort that would make Dodo very proud,” said Bernie Winne, CEO of the Boston Firefighters Credit Union.

Mortgage Rates Tick Down

MCLEAN, Va.--Mortgage rates moved slightly lower this week, with the 30-year fixed-rate mortgage averaging 6.56%, Freddie Mac reported. “Mortgage rates are at a 10-month low,” said Sam Khater, Freddie Mac’s chief economist. “Purchase demand continues to rise on the back of lower rates and solid economic growth. Though many potential homebuyers still face affordability challenges, consistently lower rates may provide them with the impetus to enter the market.” The 30-year FRM averaged 6.56% as of Aug. 28, down from last week when it averaged 6.58%. A year ago at this time, the 30-year FRM averaged 6.35%. The 15-year FRM averaged 5.69%, unchanged from last week. A year ago at this time, the 15-year FRM averaged 5.51%, Freddie Mac said. ____________________________________________ Check out NCOFCU's additional features: First Responder Credit Union Academy Podcasts YouTube Mini's Blog Job Board

Many CUs Likely to Face New Operating Challenges "Michael Moebs"

04/08/2024 09:04 pm By Ray Birch LAKE FOREST, Ill.—The trend lines don’t lie: Financial institutions charging high overdraft fees will likely face operating challenges in the near future and may even be forced to merge if they don’t follow the market trend of lowering their OD charge.
