Fire Family Foundation Hosts Sixth Annual Fire Boot Classic on Saturday

April 27th Charity Event Supports Firefighters

Published: Thursday, April 25, 2019 | 2:25 PM


Firefighters…  They risk their lives every day to protect their community … “to protect us, our lives and our property. They are men and women like you and me, yet, they serve… every day to ensure that we are safe.” Their commitment to helping others is second to none. With all of the devastating fires the past few years, many firefighters lost their homes while helping to save so many others.

 On April 27, 2019, Fire Family Foundation is hosting its 6th Annual Fire Boot Classic Charity Event at the London Hotel in West Hollywood. This event is a Casino Night and Poker Tournament, with Drinks, Dining, a Silent Auction, Live Auction, and Fun! The funds raised from this event will support the Firefighter Relief fund that provides financial assistance to firefighters and their families in times of need. The mission is to be there… “when they need our support.”

 As the charitable hand of Firefighters First Credit Union, the Foundation provides vital financial assistance to the Fire Family. We also award $50,000 in scholarship grants each year to the children of active or fallen firefighters nationwide and we help 501(c)(3) tax exempt organizations to support the local charitable needs of fire departments, firefighters and their families and other charitable causes within their local communities.

 Please show your support for firefighters who sacrifice so much for the safety of the surrounding communities, for your safety.

 London Hotel is located at 1020 N. San Vicente Blvd. in West Hollywood, CA 90069.

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.
