First Source FCU becomes festival sponsor

December 29, 2006

We are pleased to announce that First Source Federal Credit Union will be the Great American Irish Festival Hospitality sponsor for 2007. Our thanks go out to CEO Mike Parsons and his team for their support.

About First Source FCU:
Founded in 1938 as the Utica Teachers Federal Credit Union, in the midst of the Depression, teachers found it difficult to secure credit. They also had special needs, such as the deferment of loan payments during the summer months when school was not in session. Eleven teachers applied for and received the Government's approval to form a Credit Union.

In 1992, to better reflect the broader membership of the organization, their name was changed to First Source Federal Credit Union. Today First Source serves nearly 30,000 members from various Groups in our community. In March of 2007 First Source was granted a charter that allows anyone who lives, works, worships, or attends school in Oneida and Herkimer Counties to become a member.
