April 22, 2013 is Earth Day, one of our favorite
holidays in Michigan. It means that the birds are back, spring buds
are on the trees and we can pack away the gloves and scarves and get outside to
enjoy the warmer weather.
Celebrating and observing Earth Day can be as
large-scale as installing solar panels on your roof or as simple as planting a
tree, or helping to clean up your neighborhood. Even the smallest
gestures count toward the health of our beautiful planet. Small gestures added
together, can make a big difference over time.
Banking in an environmentally responsible way
definitely falls into that category, considering the sheer volume of
transactions that take place over the days, months, weeks and years.
That’s why Community Financial is proud to offer
several options for more eco-friendly and sustainable banking that help reduce
paper waste, fuel consumption and other resource usage.
Those options include:
·eReceipts delivered to your via email instead of
on paper when you visit a branch
·Online and mobile banking transactions save you a trip to
the credit union
·ePay allows you to pay bills without writing checks or
driving to the post office for stamps
·eStatements are delivered through email instead of on paper
through traditional mail
·Direct Deposit saves you gas and time by
automatically depositing your check into your accounts each payday
·eClub puts all these green services together so
you make all your transactions electronically, saving time, money
and the environment
“When people think of
banking, they often picture stacks of paper, but that’s not the case anymore,
thanks to investments in online and mobile technology,” said Sarah Cousineau,
marketing manager for Community Financial. “By providing mobile and
online alternatives, not only is banking becoming more convenient, but it is
also becoming more environmentally sound.”
