KETTERING, OHIO, January 16, 2013 – Day Air Credit Union set a goal for 2012 to fund dreams and grow the community by $100 million in loans. Not only was this goal met, it was exceeded!
As a local credit union, Day Air is in tune with the needs of the community and its membership. We are headquartered in Kettering and serve the 9 surrounding counties. When the economy took a dip in 2008, many banks pulled back on lending if not stopping altogether. Day Air wanted to fill a need in the community by helping our members buy their first home, fund their children’s braces, get a new fuel efficient car or buy an engagement ring. Day Air Credit Union provided over $105,000,000 in lending….that’s 3,590 new vehicles, 548 new homes, 185 small businesses growing, 417 students going to college, plus many other dreams. “Being a financial cooperative, we are built around meeting the needs of our members and community, not maximizing profit.” says William Burke, President and CEO of Day Air Credit Union. “We live by the philosophy of people helping people and are here to serve the community. We look forward to a successful 2013 for all of our members and members yet to be.”
Day Air Credit Union provided a safe and secure way to fund a dream, all while growing the community. At the Credit Union, every dollar deposited into the credit union is given back to the membership and community in the form of lower loan rates, higher deposit rates and free products and services. Day Air has millions to lend and is ready to help grow our local economy even more in 2013.
