COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo.– Ent Credit Union has been awarded a grant of $1,500 as part of the 2016 Armed Forces Financial Network (AFFN) Matching Grant Program designed to reward organizations that support U.S. service members and their families. This is the fifth consecutive year Ent has been recognized by AFFN, which has been awarding grants for more than a decade as part of its overall commitment to the military community.
Ent matched the AFFN grant to provide $1,500 each to the Friends of Family Support organizations at Peterson and Schriever Air Force bases. Friends of Family Support, a private 501(3)c organization, helps fund a wide variety of services available to military personnel and their families through on-base Airman and Family Readiness Centers (A&FRC). Ent supports activities at these centers during the annual America Saves Week campaign; provides instructors to teach financial education classes to base personnel; and supports base events with monetary and in-kind donations.
