ACU School Spirit Debit Card Program

Ashland Credit Union is the only financial institution in the area with a partnership with several community schools. This partnership allows ACU to offer the exclusive School Spirit Debit Card Program to the schools and their supporters. The card program allows the Credit Union to designate a portion of the interchange income it earns on debit card usage to the designated fund the school has indicated. The program works in the following way:

This partnership allows your school system to benefit by receiving much needed funds for your designated project. ACU benefits from providing financial literacy to area schools, growing our educated youth in the area, and being a part of something much bigger than ourselves- the financial future of our community.

Welcome Irish Supporters!

Holy FamilyHoly Family School continues to produce generations of successful students who go on to help shape our local community, and the current group is no different. To provide a top-notch private education, it takes a lot of dedicated individuals, a hard-working staff, and also a lot of money!

The cost of education is high. It currently takes around $5,600 to educate one child for one school year! Holy Family is able to cover these costs through the parish, fundraisers, and other donations, and tuition must cover the rest. The more that is raised from the other sources, the less burden that is placed on the families of the students. A Holy Family debit card is just one way you can contribute towards tuition, while not having to dip into your own pocketbook.

Your participation in this program will directly impact students of all ages throughout the school.
