BATON ROUGE, LOUISIANA Pelican State Credit Union is committed to its branch communities as well as their nationally-award winning free credit counseling program that helps members on the path to financial success. The credit union is channeling this passion in its new Louisiana family, fun and finance blog,
Pelican State of Mind, which launches on July 1.
The family and fun sections of the blog will spotlight local communities, businesses, events and credit union members. Pelican"s team members across the state will contribute to putting the spotlight on local food, people and happenings through personal interaction and experiences.
"There are plenty of local businesses, events and people that don"t get the attention they deserve," said Jeffrey K. Conrad, CEO of Pelican State CU. "This blog is going to be a great way for us to help highlight all of the wonderful aspects of our branch communities here in Louisiana."
Pelican"s five Nationally Certified Credit Counselors will play a huge part in the finance section of the blog. They will provide their professional insight and opinion on a variety of topics including savings tips, life planning and frequently asked financial questions.
"We love helping our members improve their financial situation," said Jessica Oliver, Director of Financial Outreach. "
Pelican State of Mind gives us the opportunity to go one step further and provide free, high-quality financial information to millions of people who may need it."
