Welcome to the November 2025 Edition of the Prince George's Community Federal Credit Union's Monthly Newsletter.
Each month, you’ll get an inside look at what’s happening—from leadership updates and real member stories to upcoming events and timely financial tips designed to keep you informed, confident, and empowered.
Dear Members,
As we enter the season of gratitude, I can’t help but reflect on how thankful I am — for my family, for my colleagues, and for each of you who make up our Prince George’s Community Federal Credit Union family. This November marks a little over two years since I joined the Credit Union, and every day I’m reminded how special this community feels. One of our greatest missions is being the “Heart of the Community”, and I’m so proud to see that spirit in action all year long.
On Saturday, November 15, we’ll host our Heart of the Community Drive-Up Food Giveaway at our Bowie headquarters. This event is especially meaningful to me because it supports members and families impacted by the recent government shutdown—which, thankfully, ended last night—including several of my own friends and loved ones who serve in federal roles. It’s a powerful reminder that when one of us experiences hardship, our entire community comes together.
We’re also thinking ahead to the holidays and how we can make the season a little brighter for our members. Our Holiday Loan is a helpful option for covering Thanksgiving meals, travel, or Christmas gifts — a way to keep the joy of the season alive without added stress. Whether it’s gathering around the table, hosting loved ones, or giving back, we want to ensure your financial well-being is supported every step of the way.
From my family to yours, thank you for trusting us to be part of your financial journey. May your Thanksgiving be filled with warmth, peace, and moments that remind you just how much you’re appreciated.
Patrice Forbes
Director of Marketing
