CSE Federal Credit Union Commemorates 80th Anniversary with Tree Planting Initiative Across Southwest Louisiana

 

CSE Federal Credit Union, a steadfast pillar of the community, celebrated its 80th anniversary in a green and sustainable manner. The credit union is pleased to announce an ambitious tree planting initiative that took place across Southwest Louisiana as part of its commitment to environmental stewardship and community enhancement.

In collaboration with local authorities and community partners, CSE Federal Credit Union identified strategic locations for planting 80 trees, symbolizing each remarkable year of its service to the community. The selected parks included Admiral Nimitz Park and Hillcrest Park in Lake Charles, McMurry Park in Sulphur, Oil and Gas Park and Franklin Park in Jennings and West Park in DeRidder, Louisiana. This total of 80 trees is representation of CSE's deep roots in the community and our commitment to future growth.

"This 80th anniversary is a significant milestone for CSE Federal Credit Union, and we are thrilled to celebrate it by giving back to the communities we've been privileged to serve," expressed Matt Koch, President/CEO of CSE Federal Credit Union." Our tree planting initiative aligns with our dedication to sustainability and community well-being, leaving a positive impact that will endure for generations."

The tree planting events involved participation from CSE Federal Credit Union staff, community members, local officials, and environmental organizations. Native oak, cypress, trees were chosen to ensure their suitability for the local ecosystem, promoting biodiversity and environmental resilience.

CSE Federal Credit Union invited the community to join in these tree planting events, celebrating not only the credit union's rich history but also fostering a sustainable and vibrant future for Southwest Louisiana.
