Giving Back

Season of Giving

Members Helping Members

November 6-30, 2023

We are so grateful to be a part of our wonderful community.

The holidays are a perfect time of year to acknowledge just how lucky we are by sharing what we have with members who need a little extra help. Each year at this time, Sun Federal invites our members to nominate fellow members who could use a little extra holiday cheer.

Since we started the Sun Federal Season of Giving program in 2008, and together with the love, caring and support of our members, we have brightened the holidays and delivered some extra special gifts to more than 378 families in need.
