SRP Federal Credit Union Celebrates $3 Million Donated to Local Schools through Affinity Program

posted on

North Augusta, SC – Principals, superintendents, school board representatives, and educators from across the CSRA gathered at SRP Federal Credit Union's Administrative Campus on Monday, May 18, to celebrate a significant milestone in the SRP Affinity Debit Card Program: more than $3 million donated to local schools throughout the region.

 

Established in 2018, the SRP Affinity Debit Card Program gives SRP members an easy and meaningful way to support local education. Members select a school-branded debit card connected to one of 46 participating schools, and every time the card is used for purchases, SRP donates funds directly to that school.

 

Participating schools include public, charter, and private high schools across the CSRA, as well as Augusta Technical College.

 

The celebration featured ceremonial checks representing donations made to participating schools and districts, highlighting the impact of SRP members' ongoing commitment to investing in education through the Affinity Program.

 

"Every swipe is bigger than just a transaction, it's an investment in our students, educators, and the future of our communities." said Liz Ponder, CEO of SRP Federal Credit Union. "This milestone represents the power of people coming together to make a lasting impact in local schools across the CSRA. We are incredibly proud of our members for embracing this program and helping create meaningful opportunities for students."

 

One of the program's most impactful features is the flexibility of the donations. Funds provided through the Affinity Program are unrestricted, allowing school administrators to direct resources where they are needed most.

 

Over the years, Affinity Program funds have supported a wide range of educational needs, including classroom technology, furniture, training for teachers, athletic and band uniforms, and student travel to competitions.

 

SRP Federal Credit Union remains committed to creating opportunities that strengthen local schools and enrich the lives throughout the CSRA.
