Disaster Relief Program

Cobalt Credit Union has launched a comprehensive Disaster Relief Program in response to the recent devastation. This initiative introduces a range of new products and services to assist individuals affected by the disaster.

Central to the program is the introduction of the Disaster Relief Loan, offering a low interest rate starting at 6.49% APR*. This specialized loan is designed to provide immediate financial assistance to those impacted by the recent severe weather.

Additionally, we are offering a Skip-a-Pay option, allowing eligible members to defer loan payments during this challenging time. This temporary relief measure aims to ease financial burdens and provide breathing room for affected individuals and families.

Cobalt Credit Union remains committed to supporting its members and the broader community during times of crisis. Through the Disaster Relief Program, we stand ready to assist members on their path to recovery and resilience.

Blood donors often feel a great sense of satisfaction after donating blood because helping others in need feels good. Additionally, a single blood donation can save up to three lives in just 60 minutes.
