Hughes Federal Credit Union

The Hughes Help team rolled out the fun at the Bike Decorating & Pizza Party at Children’s Clinics! Sponsored by Hughes, this event brought families together to prepare for the El Tour de Tucson Family Fun Ride. Kids of all ages showed off their creativity with colorful decorations and competed for prizes in the BEST DECORATED BIKE CONTEST. Beyond the festivities, this event highlights the important work of Children's Clinics, which provides compassionate care to families across Tucson. ?? #FeelGoodFriday #HughesHelps #PeopleHelpingPeople #ElTourdeTucson

Homeownership can feel out of reach for many, but the Tucson Welcome Home Program is here to change that. ?? Yesterday, Hughes joined GoWest Credit Union Association and five other local credit unions to launch this $0 down payment initiative, helping aspiring homeowners take their first step. We’re proud to be part of this collaborative effort to make a lasting impact in Southern Arizona.

Going above and beyond takes on new meaning with Hughes employees Paula and Tyler! They each raised $1,000 and rappelled down the 5151 Broadway building to support the Girl Scouts of Southern Arizona, funding programs that inspire and uplift girls in our community. We’re grateful for everyone who joined in supporting them. Interested in taking on this challenge next year? Find out how you can get involved with the Girl Scouts: https://bit.ly/4fBUQEG

On Wednesdays we wear pink! We had a record number of attendees from credit unions and trade association partners to our GWLN - Southern Arizona Sister Society networking event this week. The theme of Empower and Uplift was highlighted by our amazing guest speaker, Diana Charbonneau, who provided actionable insight on advocating for ourselves and articulating our value. We also heard from Brittany Smith of Youth On Their Own about the community need her organization addresses for homeless youth and how our credit unions can help. Our generous attendees donated and packed hygiene products to stock up YOTO's Mini Mall. I'm so grateful to lead this initiative in Southern Arizona with Irlanda Cuevas-Leyva, CUBDP and Dawn Lepore, CUDE. Huge thanks as well to our lunch sponsor, Velera! ?
