Community Engagement

SECU supports our communities with programs like Summer Camp Awards, Governor’s School Supply Drive, Winter Toy Drive, and more. People Helping People® is more than our philosophy, it’s a way of life.

Winter Toy Drive

We hope you’ll join the effort to support our fifth annual statewide Toy Drive and help us spread joy and excitement to North Carolina children and families during the holiday season.

To donate, please bring new, unwrapped toys or books to your local branch through December 4, 2026. Items collected will be delivered through our collaborative efforts with local charities and organizations. Through our annual Toy Drive we have collected and delivered thousands of toys in our communities across the state.

Summer Camp Awards

SECU’s Summer Camp Awards program gives FAT CAT® and Zard® members a chance to enjoy a fun summer experience. During the campaign, youth members can apply for a $500 award to help cover the costs of their camp expenses for the summer season. Hundreds of SECU youth are realizing their summer camp dreams through this exciting program.

Governor’s School Supply Drive

The Governor’s School Supply Drive is an initiative that helps North Carolina students and teachers get items they need each school year. SECU is happy to participate in this important effort by having each of our branches serve as collection sites for the annual event.
