October 17, 2025

North Augusta, SC – In an initiative to uplift local financial wellness, SRP Federal Credit Union provided a free financial education seminar in each of the 10 counties SRP serves across Georgia and South Carolina during the spring and summer of 2025.

 

Led by SRP Financial Services Engagement Developer Tawanaca Williams, the seminars covered a variety of topics such as credit reports, credit scores, homeownership, identity theft prevention, scams, along with wills and trusts.

 

Over 500 community members attended the seminars, which included a free catered meal and advice from subject matter experts. Feedback from attendees was overwhelmingly positive, with many reviewers stating they found the seminars informative and easy to understand.

 

SRP Federal Credit Union’s field of membership includes South Carolina counties Aiken, Allendale, Barnwell, and Edgefield, and Georgia counties Burke, Columbia, Jefferson, Lincoln, McDuffie, and Richmond. Williams and fellow members of SRP’s Financial Education team strive to serve members across all 10 counties with helpful resources.

 

“About two years ago, when I started in this role, the primary objective was to make sure each county was well-served,” said Williams, adding that attendance at her 2025 10-county initiative doubled from 2024.

 

Additionally, courtesy of SRP, Williams engaged with community members prior to each seminar through “Random Acts of Kindness,” assisting some back-to-school shoppers, grocery shoppers, and gas station customers with expenses.

 

“Our Financial Education team truly represents the credit union philosophy of ‘People Helping People,’” said Liz Ponder, Chief Executive Officer of SRP Federal Credit Union. “We are grateful for Tawanaca Williams and her colleagues’ unwavering dedication as they ensure communities across our field of membership have access to our educational resources.”
