The Card That Always Gives
The spirit of giving is never ending at Christian Community Credit Union. Through our “Cards that Give to Missions” Credit Card Program, we make a donation every time members use their Christian Community Credit Union Platinum Rewards Visa for purchases. To date, we’ve given over $2.5 million to missions projects. And
thanks to our members, we continue to make a significant difference in people’s lives.
Our Newest Project: “Launch a Village”
Through our “Cards that Give to Missions” Credit Card Program, we’ve pledged $232,500 towards a tribal development project in Northern Thailand. Called “Launch a Village,” our goal is to launch three villages in two years by providing water and sanitation resources, micro enterprise lending and more. Working in partnership with the ministry of Integrated Tribal Development Programme, we can provide much needed help and hope to the poor hill tribe villagers. Not only are we helping change lives economically and physically but also spiritually.
“ The ‘Launch a Village’ Project is an answer to prayer. Not only do we help bring water and life skills to the poor and remote villages in Thailand, we’re also sharing about the Living Water that will flow into each of the villager’s heart and soul.”

Christian Community Credit Union's "Cards that Give to Missions & Ministries” credit card program has a mission of its own. Every time members make a purchase using their Christian Community Credit Union credit or debit card, the Credit Union donates to missions and ministries. The donation is based on the interchange income - the amount that merchants pay to card issuers such as the Credit Union. Donation recipients are primarily ministries and organizations who are members of Christian Community Credit Union.
Through the years, the Credit Union’s “Cards that Give to Missions & Ministries” have contributed to the following:
• International Missions
• Christian and Regional Ministries
• College and Seminary Scholarships
• Disaster Relief
• New Church Planting
• Camping Ministries
• Other Ministry Projects
Make Christian Community Credit Union's credit cards your card of choice! Together, we can give more to missions and ministries each year.
