Community Involvement

Dort Financial Credit Union has extended a helping hand to the community since its founding in 1951. We are honored to be a part of this community and the surrounding counties as well, through our philanthropy and volunteer efforts.

Dort Financial is grounded in the credit union philosophy of “people helping people” and building throughout the community. In 2025, Dort Financial donated over $350,000 to support our communities, and team members volunteered at more than 120 events. From handing out promotional items at Flint City Bucks and Flint Firebirds games and sponsoring banners and scoreboards at local schools, to hosting blood drives and raising funds for Carriage Town Ministries and Garrett's Place through campaigns, you can count on Dort Financial Credit Union to make a lasting impact on all aspects of the community.

We are grateful to be a part of the communities surrounding our branch locations, and look forward to expanding our community involvement throughout the state of Michigan. Some of our current community partners include Dutton Farms, The Prism Project, Xpectional Hero's, The Miracle League of North Oakland County, the YMCA of Greater Flint, Catholic Charities of Shiawassee and Genesee Counties, Whaley Children's Center, Sloan Museum of Discovery and Hurley Children’s Hospital.
