Financial setbacks can shake up even the most carefully planned budget. Whether the disruption came from a government shutdown, a layoff, or another unexpected life event, the road back can take time, careful planning and a strong support system.
For many members, Redstone Federal Credit Union has been part of that support system, offering practical relief and guidance during difficult stretches. During the previous two shutdowns, Redstone provided $5.6 million in loans to 1,177 members. Available options included a low-interest loan at 1.50% for up to $5,000, or a zero-interest loan for up to $15,000 or a member’s net monthly pay. All total, those shutdowns lasted 119 days.
“Our members are at the heart of everything we do,” said Joe Newberry, Redstone’s President and CEO. “During any financial setback, Redstone wants its members to know that they are not alone. Redstone is here to provide financial breathing room and personal support to help them through it.”
Beyond emergency relief, Redstone’s certified financial counselors are available to meet one-on-one with members. They can help review loan payments, build a workable budget, and create a personalized plan for moving forward with more confidence.
