CME Gives Back: Strengthening Our Community Together

At CME, we believe in the power of giving back to the communities we serve. Although unofficial, today, we like to say that CME stands for Community Means Everything. Our dedication to charitable initiatives and community involvement reflects our commitment to making a positive impact.

Annual First Responders Charity Golf Outing

CME Federal Credit Union was founded in 1935 to serve the financial needs of our public servants. One way we choose to honor these heroes is with our Annual First Responders Charity Golf Outing. To date, we have raised over $340,000 towards our efforts allowing us to give back to those who give our communities so much every day!

CME and Firefighters4Kids

CME Federal Credit Union is proud to be an annual sponsor of Firefighters4Kids. Founded in 1977 by Columbus firefighter Mike Mullins, the program has grown significantly over the years. By 2019, it provided toys to 5,322 families and 18,978 children, all managed through community donations and a dedicated volunteer base. The program remains committed to its mission without any paid staff, ensuring all resources go directly to children in need. To date, CME has donated countless hours of volunteer time and over $300,000 to this initiative.
