MEMBER PROFILE
Ted Bronsnick

Ted Bronsnick, who takes pride in being one of Alternatives first members, came in for an auto loan. “I did check with other lenders,” he told Consumer Loan officer Amy Smith, “but I decided to get my loan at Alternatives. A few other places had rates that were a bit lower, but Alternatives, in an effort to be competitive, was willing to lowers their rate by .75%. I felt my relationship with the Credit Union was reason enough to support what they do by getting my loan with them.”

Money Wise is our 7 week financial education course.
