Every Veterans Day, we pause to recognize the brave men and women who have served our country. It’s an important moment to say thank you, but our appreciation shouldn’t end when November 11th does.

Veterans are our neighbors, friends, family members, coworkers, and local business owners. They continue to strengthen the communities we call home long after their military service has ended.

Service that continues at home

At HRCU, community has always meant showing up for the people who live, work, and play in our neighborhoods. That commitment to our neighbors is at the heart of who we are.

Veterans Day gives all of us an opportunity to stop and recognize those who served. But real appreciation goes beyond a single day.

It can mean listening to veterans' stories, supporting veteran-owned businesses, volunteering with organizations that serve veterans and their families, or simply looking for ways to make life a little easier for the veterans in our community.

For HRCU, it also means looking for ways our financial services can better serve those who have served us.

HERO Checking: Banking with veterans in mind

HRCU's HERO Checking gives us another way to recognize and serve veterans & first responders as part of our continued commitment to our local community.

This account has benefits designed to make everyday banking a little easier and give back to those who serve.

  • No monthly fee or minimum balance requirement
    Keep everyday banking simple without worrying about maintaining a minimum balance or paying a monthly account fee.
  • Giving back in your honor
    When you open a HERO Checking account, HRCU makes a donation on your behalf to an organization that assists first responders, military families, or veterans. It’s one more way your account can help support the larger community of heroes around us.

Whether you’re managing everyday expenses, planning for homeownership, saving for what’s next, or simply looking for a local financial partner, HERO Checking is one way HRCU is proud to serve those who have served us.
