There was a celebration recently at the Nutmeg State Financial Credit Union”™s branch inside the Shoprite supermarket at 259 Bull Hill Lane in Orange and outside in the parking lot where the credit union”™s mobile branch had been set up. It was to mark Nutmeg being granted the “Juntos Avanzamos” (“Together We Advance”) designation from the Federation of Community Development Credit Unions (FCDCU).
Nutmeg is only the second credit union in Connecticut with the “Juntos Avanzamos” designation. It confirms the credit union is helping key demographics that often are overlooked or ignored when it comes to finances ”” Hispanic and immigrant communities.
