HVCU will open our newest branch at 851 New Loudon Road in Latham, on Monday, July 22, 2024.
“This is a great opportunity to utilize an existing building as our first branch in the Capital Region,” said Chief Banking Officer Rick Lionhood. “The location will offer our current members greater convenience as well as the opportunity for our staff to help even more New Yorkers improve their financial wellness.”
The credit union will also provide a $5,000 grant to the United Way of the Greater Capital Region, specifically for programs serving the Latham area. “Our financial cooperative has always understood the importance of supporting the communities we serve,” he said. “We look forward to working with the United Way and other local partners in the Capital Region.”
