What are members saying?

Rebecca helped with the consolidation, and we put together a debt snowball plan to get my credit cards paid off quickly. I’m looking forward to watching my credit score increase and to start saving for the down payment on a home. Having an accountability partner to check in on me and help provide a roadmap has made a huge difference in my success.

For the first time in my life, I am able to have a savings account, all of my bills paid and able to reduce my debt easily with every paycheck. With my goals in sight, I can step out with confidence, knowing that I can consult with my financial coach. I have such a great team with Empeople Credit Union on my side to help me crush my financial goals.

The program has helped me financially in more ways that I thought. I would absolutely recommend to family and friends. I already recommend the program to my brother-in-law. I am definitely a lot closer to my goals because of the program vs. me doing it myself. The biggest changes I’ve see is in my credit score improvement on-top of my savings building!
