HUNTSVILLE, Ala. – Redstone Federal Credit Union is offering members financial relief options to help ease their burden during the federal government shutdown.
Members facing a loss or delay in paychecks can apply for a special low-interest loan at just 1.50%, up to $5,000 or their net monthly pay, with no payment due for the first 60 days. For those needing extra flexibility, Redstone is also offering Skip-a-Pay on eligible loans at no cost, allowing members to defer a payment for one month.
These options are available not only to federal employees, but also to contractors directly impacted by the shutdown.
“Our members are at the heart of everything we do,” said Joe Newberry, Redstone’s President and CEO. “We know this shutdown is creating uncertainty for many families, and we want them to know they are not alone. Redstone is here to provide financial breathing room and personal support to help them through this time.”
In addition to financial relief programs, Redstone’s certified financial counselors are available to meet one-on-one with members. They can help review loan payments, build a budget, and offer personalized guidance to navigate these challenges.
Members can learn more, apply for loans, or connect with a counselor by visiting www.redfcu.org/assistance or contacting their local branch.
