Corporate Social Responsibility
Truliant is about more than just financial services. We also strive to make a difference in the communities where we live, work, and operate.
Why Corporate Social Responsibility Is a Priority for Truliant
Truliant has always had a greater sense of purpose that goes beyond the financial transaction. We put our mission of improving lives into action with a strong sense of community, volunteerism, inclusion and philanthropy. Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is not something we do, it defines a part of who we are. Our focus on positive economic, social and environmental impact makes a difference in the lives of our members, as well as those around us.
As an organization, we are committed to fostering an inclusive workplace, serving the underserved, and promoting sustainability and financial wellness. We sponsor a variety of community events and organizations, and provide grants and scholarships through the Truliant Foundation. We are an active part of every community we serve and want to see them thrive so we can all lead better and more healthy lives — together. In other words, we make business personal.

“Receiving this grant from the Truliant Foundation has been a game-changer for Jennings O’Neil Career Academy. The funding allowed us to provide industry-specific certifications that not only opened new doors for our participants but also gave them the confidence to pursue better-paying jobs and improve their overall quality of life.”

“Truliant Foundation’s gift was incredibly timely as our team worked hard in the Community Coat Closet to distribute 1,500 coats to our neighbors in Winston-Salem and the surrounding community during the winter months. The Foundation’s gift supported our efforts to Share Peace and Rekindle Kindness (SPARK) through hands-on and relational service-based work.”

How We Make a Difference
Our social responsibility efforts are structured around five pillars. Each is focused on a different core belief important to our members and employees.
Community Engagement
Truliant builds lasting trust through the sponsorship of organizations, employee volunteerism, corporate partnerships and community events. We are invested in the communities we serve and we make a difference by carrying out our mission: to improve lives.
For over 70 years, Truliant Federal Credit Union has been an active participant in our local communities. We listen to the needs of the community and align our support with one or more of our focus areas: Community Development, Economic Mobility, Financial Wellness and Youth and Education.

Inclusion and Belonging
We believe our credit union thrives when our team reflects the diversity of the members and communities we serve, all of whom represent a diverse range of backgrounds and cultures.
We are stronger together because we intentionally foster a culture where every voice is heard, every perspective is valued, and everyone experiences the respect and dignity they deserve.

Financial Wellness and Education
As the saying goes, "knowledge is power". Truliant provides education to our members about financial matters and services so they can make better and more fully-informed decisions that ensure long-term financial wellness.
As a trusted financial partner, we guide our members, business partners and the community to a better and more secure financial future by offering webinars, on-site financial education classes and financial wellness resources.

Environmental Stewardship and Sustainability
While many of Truliant's social responsibility efforts are focused on our local communities, we also recognize that we are part of a greater global environment.
As such, we seek opportunities to make operational decisions that lessen our impact on the environment and contribute to the greater good of society.
