Today many of our team members participated in another LMCU Day of Impact, volunteering to support local charities. From building houses and stocking shelves to cleaning up gardens and outdoor spaces, this service reflected our ongoing commitment to making a meaningful difference in our communities where we live and work.

We were proud to partner with many organizations for this event, including the following, whose missions inspire us and whose impact strengthens our communities: Habitat for Humanity of Lee and Hendry Counties Neighborhood House Critter Barn Goodwill Northern Michigan MCHS Family of Services Gilda's Club Grand Rapids Feeding Tampa Bay Lighthouse MI A Kid Again Kids' Food Basket

At LMCU, your safety is our priority — which is why International Fraud Awareness Week (Nov 17-23) matters to us. As online and phone scams continue to rise, stay cautious. Red flags include: unexpected attachments (especially .exe, .zip, .pdf files), emails from random addresses rather than official domains, and texts from unknown numbers lacking context. Trust your instincts. If it seems suspicious, don't click or respond. Learn more at our Security Center: https://bit.ly/47K1fMW. Federally Insured by NCUA.

Don’t get smished! “Smishing” scams are phishing attempts sent over text. Keep an eye out for unfamiliar senders, urgent or misspelled language, suspicious links, and offers that seem too good to be true. LMCU will never send links through verification texts, so please report any fraudsters impersonating us by calling (800) 242-9790. If you think your card info has been stolen, contact us 24/7 at (866) 304-8684 to freeze your card. You can also learn more about smishing and how to protect yourself by visiting: https://bit.ly/3JX8Gas.

LMCU teamed up with Touchdowns for Kids this season, donating $50 for every touchdown in West Michigan's High School Game of the Week — all going to Kids' Food Basket to provide healthy meals for local students. That brings our four-year total to $25,000. Great things happen when we work together.
