Rocco loved his former parks and rec job, working with families in his hometown. But, he says, "I decided to take a chance on myself."

With the help of Civic business loans, Rocco operates Bounce to You LLC, with three trucks and four employees, he's opened a Civic business Savings Account too. 

"Civic is 100% customer-centric, and it's been an awesome experience" Rocco says. 

Civic staff even helped him crunch the numbers to decide whether to consolidate his loans. He found out he'll pay less interest by keeping them seperate. 

"That honesty is key to me." Rocco says. "Civic is about helping their customers make money. They're looking out for my best interests. I'll keep saying it: I won't bank with anybody else."

Lee sees Civic as helping his family get a head start on the future, while providing convenience for today.

"Civic gives us a lot of flexibility" Lee says. "It's also a good opportunity for savings accounts for my kids, who may grow up using only online services. Now they have the option of learning to bank online and learning important financial lessons on a platform I can trust." Add in "top-notch" customer service and the ability to bank from his smartphone, Lee is happy to be part of Civic. 

"It's that membership that I like, versus just being a number" Lee says. "They really want a relationship with you. Civic is new, but it still has the old-fashioned personal touch. It's more than a Credit Union, it's a partner."

Following a 30-year career in local and county government, Sherry launched a whole new career as a real estate broker - and became one of the first members of Civic. 

"By signing up for Civic and taking my time to establish my businesses, when COVID-19 hit Civic was accessible and instrumental in getting me what I needed" Sherry says. "It was seamless. For my office, my accounts, the support was there."

Civic helps her business run smoothly, from processing check deposits to managing weekly payroll. "It's so easy" Sherry says. "Civic has pushed it to the next level, with friendly, knowledgeable staff and a low cost to do business. It just makes sense."
