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.

Let the Truth be Told - Why a New NCUA Rule Could Jolt Credit Union Innovation

The National Credit Union Administration has finalized a rule to improve board and executive succession planning within the credit union industry. This strategic move aims to curb the trend of mergers driven by technological stagnation and poor succession strategies, ensuring more credit unions maintain their independence and enhance their technological capabilities. By Ken McCarthy, Manager of marketing communications at Tyfone Credit unions are merging out of existence because of an inability to invest in technology, the National Credit Union Administration Board wrote when introducing its now finalized rule on board succession planning. The regulator now requires credit unions to establish succession planning for critical positions in their organizations. But it’s likely to have even wider effects, such as preserving more independent charters and shaking up the perspectives of those on credit union boards. “Voluntary mergers can be used to create economies of scale to offer more or ...
