Community Involvement

At Revity FCU, we actively encourage our team to volunteer to give back to our community. Check out some of the most recent community events we’ve been involved in.

Our team volunteered together at BackPack Beginnings to pack 250 Comfort BackPacks for children in Guilford, Forsyth, and Alamance Counties!

Revity LIVE! Community Giveback, October 2024

We challenged 16 Revity FCU Team Members to spend $20 in 1 hour to make an immediate impact in our community. Team members grouped themselves into teams of 4 and each tackled a different impact: $80 went to buy feminine hygiene products for the Family Service of the Piedmont, $80 went to buy non-perishable food for Greensboro Urban Ministry, $80 was donated to the United Way, and $80 was used to fill the gas tanks of 3 community members. Way to impact, team!
