Dade County FCU Now ‘Official Credit Union’ of Miami Dolphins

SWEETWATER, Fla.–Dade County FCU has renewed its partnership with the NFL’s Miami Dolphins and is now the “Official Credit Union” of the team.

In a statement, the $1-billion CU said the multi-year arrangement relationship enables Dade County Federal to continue year-round initiatives featuring member, community, and marketing programs with the oldest major-league professional sports franchise in the state of Florida.


Terms of the deal were not disclosed.

“We couldn’t be more pleased to expand our partnership with the Miami Dolphins,” said George Joseph, CEO of Dade County Federal, in a statement. “We have worked closely with the team to strengthen bonds with current and potential credit union members, and we are proud to work with an organization that helps us champion financial literacy in Miami-Dade County.”

Partnering on Events

According to Dade County FCU it will serve as a partner on a variety of Miami Dolphins events, including some surrounding youth financial education and food relief for the local community. The credit union will also have a significant online presence with the team, such as the 305 Check Down Small Business Program, which awards selected businesses in the Miami area with financial assistance and brand awareness through a variety of Miami Dolphins platforms.

Car Sales to Be Held

As part of the continued partnership, Dade County Federal will continue to hold car sale events at Hard Rock Stadium, it added.

Dolphins fans will have access to special programs and promotions including merchandise giveaways and the opportunity to receive Dolphins tickets. In addition, Dolphins players and staff will continue to have access to the full array of Dade County Federal’s financial services offerings.

“Even during a global pandemic, we have seen that sports unites communities,” said Mauricio Morales, senior vice president of marketing and information technology for Dade County Federal. “We look forward to a long and successful relationship with the team and to expanding our outreach to more fans when the stadium is full, hopefully soon.”

How To Make Decisions With Conviction—Even Under Pressure

And I’ve been in that same position myself. It’s not because we lack information, but because we don’t feel ready to choose. Leaders often get stuck because they’re waiting for the perfect moment to act. They’re thinking through the consequences, weighing the trade-offs, trying to get it right.
