Delta Community Credit Union, Georgia's largest credit union with $4.7 billion in assets and more than 310,000 members, will celebrate its 75th anniversary on March 8, 2015. Credit Union employees and members will mark the occasion by providing additional support to four of its non-profit partners who are also celebrating anniversaries this year.

"This milestone is a testament to Delta Community's dedication to our members, our employees and the neighborhoods where they live," said Delta Community CEO Hank Halter. "We approach our 75th year from a position of financial stability, exciting growth and with an even greater commitment to the communities we serve."

  • March 9 – 31: The Delta Community Story Time Book & DVD Drive allows employees and members to donate books and movies to patients at Children's Miracle Network (CMN) hospitals in Atlanta, as CMN celebrates its 100th anniversary in 2015. Book and DVD collection bins will be located inside Delta Community's 23 metro Atlanta branches through March 31. 
  • March 14: Delta Community employees will volunteer for a beautification project at The Community School of Decatur, which celebrates its 10th anniversary in 2015.

"We're proud of the legacy we have established in these first 75 years," said Halter. "Today, Delta Community is everything your bank should be. We are committed to offering trusted advice and better value on the financial services people use every day."
