YNCU (Your Neighbourhood Credit Union) recently celebrated moving into a new branch in Windsor — along with marking its 75th anniversary — with community members joining in the celebrations with a family-friendly neighbourhood party.

Moving to the new Windsor branch, located at 650 Division Road, Unit 403, means YNCU can better serve its members.

Location upgrades include cash and teller services, which weren’t available at the previous branch.

“We’re so excited for Windsor to experience this new branch,” states Archie Bonifacio, Chief Member Experience Officer at YNCU. “We put a lot of thought and care into the design, and we know our members will enjoy an enhanced experience when they walk through our doors.”

Although they have moved into a new location, YNCU continues to honour its long history within the local community with a feature photo collage at the new branch.

“We’ve been here for 75 years and we know we’ll be here long into the future,” Bonifacio expresses.

As part of YNCU’s commitment to giving back to their community, the credit union partnered with Windsor Lifeline Outreach (WLO) to open the new branch.

YNCU matched all non-perishable food and clothing donations leading up to the grand opening event and presented a $1,000 cheque to WLO.

“Support from a community-minded organization like YNCU simply helps us put food and clothing into the hands of Windsor residents who are going through a challenging season of life,” says Jeremiah Bettany, WLO Executive Director. “Relationships are what make a community strong. We can make Windsor an even better place to live and grow if we all work together.” (More info on: WLO-online.com)

With 17 YNCU branches and a network of surcharge-free ATMs, Ontarians can access financial services close to home, across southwestern and northern Ontario.

At $2 billion+ in assets under administration and 53,000 members strong (and growing!), YNCU is one of the largest credit unions in Ontario.

Together with its members, employees and community partners, YNCU is helping to make life better in the places Ontarians live, work, learn and play!
