Alternatives FCU
Alternatives FCU, through its Ultra Outreach initiative, provided affordable financial services and business development assistance to minority communities throughout Chemung County. “The need was so great we made a commitment to increase our presence by visiting churches, businesses, nonprofits and government agencies to make sure the people and stakeholders knew that Alternatives was able to provide affordable financial services and business development assistance in their community.”
