LAKE MARY, Fla. – CFE FCU, formerly known as Central Florida Educators CU, donated $90,000 to Orange, Seminole, and Osceola County School Boards to support funding of school programs and as result of its MyCFE4Schools debit card partnership program.
This program allows CFE members to select a custom debit card that supports the school district of their choice. When cardholders use the debit card for signature-based transactions, CFE sets aside funds in a separate account for donation to the districts based on card usage for the year.
Since the 2009 inception of the program, the $1.3-billion credit union has donated a total of $166,500. Each year as card usage has increased so has the donation amount. In 2011, Orange County Public Schools received $53,200, the School District of Osceola received $22,400 and the Foundation for Seminole County Public Schools received $14,400.
