Gesa Credit Union expands Affinity Debit Card Program: every card now supports local organizations

Gesa also kicks off the New Year with limited-time opportunities, offering members new ways to save and earn

RICHLAND, WA (January 7, 2025) |

Gesa, a community-focused credit union insured by the NCUA, is proud to strengthen its commitment to supporting local communities by expanding its Affinity Debit Card Program. Gesa’s standard debit card now joins the credit union’s extensive suite of Affinity debit cards in giving back to local organizations with every swipe – all at no cost to its members. This means that all Gesa debit cards now support local causes and organizations, allowing every member to make a meaningful impact with their everyday purchases.

With more than 65 Affinity debit cards to choose from, Gesa members can select a card that supports a cause they are passionate about, such as local schools, planting trees in the Pacific Northwest, or groups honoring local heroes like healthcare workers, firefighters, law enforcement, educators, and veterans. Gesa’s Affinity Debit Card Program has donated more than $3 million to local organizations and will continue to make a meaningful impact across the region with this latest expansion.

“At Gesa, we are deeply committed to supporting the people and communities we serve,” said Brandon Allison, AVP of Training, Education and Community Outreach at Gesa Credit Union. “By expanding our Affinity Debit Card Program, we are making it easier than ever for our members to give back to causes they care about with every purchase, no matter what card they have. We are honored to continue empowering our members to create a lasting, positive change for the communities they call home.”

All Affinity debit cards are available exclusively at Gesa Credit Union and are free to Gesa members with a checking account. There is no fee for members to switch their cards to any of the designs.  Anyone who lives, works, or worships in Washington, and select counties in Idaho or Oregon is eligible to become a member and support local causes.

Additionally, Gesa is helping its members kick off the New Year with more ways to enhance their financial well-being. There are various offers on checking accounts, credit cards, auto refinancing and CDs, reflecting Gesa’s ongoing commitment to providing valuable financial solutions while making a positive impact on the community.For more information about Gesa Credit Union and its offerings, visit www.gesa.com.
