First Commonwealth Federal Credit Union has announced a new partnership with the TriUnity Foundation, expanding its commitment to individuals and families facing financial challenges to now include those that accompany terminal illness. Through this collaboration, the credit union will help connect eligible members and individuals in the community with critical grant funding to ease the burden of medical expenses, housing costs, and other essential needs during life’s most difficult moments.
The TriUnity Foundation, founded within the credit union movement, provides grants to individuals diagnosed with terminal or life-threatening illnesses. These grants help recipients reduce financial stress so they can focus on their health, their relationships, and the time they have with loved ones. Guided by the core values of Hope, Healing, and Strength, the Foundation strives to ensure that no one faces the compounding strain of financial hardship alone.
As part of the partnership, First Commonwealth Federal Credit Union will help identify eligible individuals within its community and guide them through the Foundation’s simple, confidential application process. Grants may total up to $2,500 per individual, depending on need and funding availability. At least 90 percent of donated funds remain within the credit union’s community, ensuring a direct, local impact.
