2026 Winter Newsletter
Here is your guide to building a greener future: Clean Energy Newsletter
Welcome to our Winter 2026 e-Newsletter, your comprehensive guide to building a more sustainable and financially secure future. This season’s update is filled with exciting news, from enhanced member rewards and fossil-free investment opportunities to community-driven initiatives designed to amplify our collective impact on the planet.
Table of Contents:
In our most recent newsletter, “Your Guide to Building a Greener Future,” we dive deep into the practical tools you need to reduce your carbon footprint and save money:
- #MYCLEANIMPACT: Help us donate $3,000 to 350.org – a grassroot powerhouse fighting for a fossil-free future. Post a #MYCLEANIMPACT image (or your scorecard that you received in an email last week) and tag friends and family to follow us on social media.
- 2026 Board Director Nominations: We invite you to nominate yourself or a peer who brings a unique perspective and a commitment to a sustainable future. Let’s build a more inclusive, green economy together.
- New Checking Account Tiers: Big News! More Cash Back, Less Effort with Our New Reward Tiers – Beginning February 2026.
- Investing in an IRA gives immediate financial benefits: By choosing a Traditional IRA, you can often deduct your contributions from your taxable income, while a Roth IRA allows your investments to grow completely tax-free for the long haul. Unlike big banks that may use your retirement funds to support fossil fuels, we ensure your money works for both your future and the planet—all with no account maintenance fees.
