Thanks and Giving Grants

Greenville Federal Credit Union’s Thanks and Giving Grants (TGG) program was established in 2018 to identify and provide funding support for community-based 501(c)(3) organizations that promote youth, education, community and economic assistance or relief in local areas across Greenville County. TGG program grants were awarded in 2018 and 2021.

 

The next TGG round will be announced on our website and across all credit union communications and social media profiles.
