North Augusta, SC – As students in the CSRA return for the 2025-2026 school year, SRP Federal Credit Union has distributed thousands of school supplies and provided valuable financial information to help local students prepare for a bright future.
SRP team members have contributed nearly 100 volunteer hours at back-to-school events in communities across SRP’s 10-county service area in Georgia and South Carolina, engaging with students, families, and educators at over 25 schools and organizations.
Alongside school supplies and fun SRP swag items, SRP team members promoted the Credit Union’s youth checking and savings accounts, designed to introduce young members to money management and financial responsibility.
Students and families also received information about SRP Affinity Debit Cards, which allow members to help fund local schools with every purchase. SRP Federal Credit Union has donated over $2 million to 45 high schools and Augusta Technical College Foundation since the program’s inception in 2018.
In addition to volunteering at local back-to-school events, SRP team members recently contributed school supplies and volunteer hours to United Way of the CSRA’s Stuff the Bus collection drive, helping students in Richmond, Columbia, and Burke counties prepare for a successful school year.
“SRP is guided by the credit union philosophy of ‘People Helping People,’” said Grace Helms, Associate Vice President of Marketing, Communications, and Community Development of SRP Federal Credit Union. “We are proud of all the opportunities we’ve taken to help local students start the school year ready to learn, from providing school supplies to assisting with great financial beginnings.”
