This quote appropriately reflects the way Gulf Coast Educators FCU views the world. We know that our members who dedicate themselves to education are those people fortunate to earn their livelihoods by creating a better world. We know this because so many of the management team have spouses, siblings or children who have chosen to be educators. We all have personal stories of how our loved ones have touched lives and made the world a better place by being educators.
It is in the spirit of the above quote that Gulf Coast Educators FCU encourages employees to volunteer. Many of the credit union's staff do so on their own by volunteering outside of work through churches, PTAs, the red cross and special olympics to name a few. In addition, many of the employees volunteer on behalf of the credit union through programs such as HOSTS, sending speakers and presenters to schools, relays for life, food & toy drives and local education foundations. In fact, the credit union has active board volunteers on 7 area education foundations and works with several others in the area. During the Texas Invitational, a basketball tournament hosted by the Pasadena ISD Education Foundation, the credit union sends an army of employees to help make the tournament a success for all involved.
So we salute all of those fortunate enough to earn their livelihoods in jobs that directly help to create a more peaceful, just and sustainable world and the volunteers who work for a better world without pay. Keep up the great work and if you haven't discovered the joy of volunteering, let us know and we can help get you started.
