North Augusta, SC – Reflecting its commitment to uplifting the communities it serves, SRP Federal Credit Union recently supported United Way of the CSRA and United Way of Aiken County through donations, volunteer efforts, and a collaboration with the SRP Mobile Branch.

On Aug. 19, SRP Federal Credit Union presented donations of $15,000 each to leaders of United Way of Aiken County and United Way of the CSRA, helping the organizations strengthen local communities.

“SRP Federal Credit Union’s $15,000 investment in United Way of Aiken County is an investment in the people of our community,” said Ellen Luton, President of United Way of Aiken County. “Every dollar we receive helps us respond to critical needs, strengthen local programs, and create opportunities for our neighbors to build better lives. What makes this gift especially meaningful is the ripple effect it creates. Through United Way’s network of local partners and community initiatives, SRP’s generosity can reach children, families, seniors, and individuals throughout Aiken County who need a hand up. We are incredibly grateful for SRP’s continued commitment to our community and for believing in the power of working together to make Aiken County stronger.”

In the days following the donations, SRP Federal Credit Union continued to contribute to United Way’s efforts in the CSRA.

A team of SRP employees joined volunteers from organizations and companies in the Greater Augusta area to support United Way of the CSRA’s Project Serve, a community-wide volunteer day on Aug. 21. SRP volunteers helped paint rooms at the Murphy-Harpst Children’s Center in Downtown Augusta, helping create a welcoming environment for youths in foster care.

On Aug. 24, the SRP Mobile Branch and United Way of the CSRA collaborated in Waynesboro, GA, to raise awareness about United Way’s vital resources, such as the Volunteer Income Tax Assistance for free tax preparation, Mission United for veteran and active duty families, and the Project Dash delivery service for people facing food insecurity.

Committed to the credit union philosophy of “People Helping People,” SRP Federal Credit Union proudly supports organizations uplifting children, families, and individuals throughout the CSRA. SRP recently contributed to United Way of the CSRA’s annual Stuff the Bus school supply drive through donations and volunteering.

“SRP Federal Credit Union continues to show what it means to be a true community partner,” said Brittany Burnett, President & CEO of United Way of Aiken County. “From helping us Stuff the Bus and ensuring local students have the supplies they need to succeed, to bringing their mobile unit into the community and investing their time and talent through Project Serve, SRP is meeting people where they are and making a tangible difference. Their commitment goes far beyond their financial contribution—it’s about showing up, serving alongside us, and helping create a stronger, more connected CSRA. We are incredibly grateful for SRP’s partnership and the impact they continue to make in our community.”
