Our Commitment to the Communities We Serve
At DOCFCU, community engagement is more than something we talk about – it’s something we believe in and actively support.
Our leadership and Board members are embracing opportunities to give back. Their willingness to participate in community initiatives and volunteer alongside our team sends a powerful message: serving our communities is part of who we are.
Recently, members of our DOCFCU team have volunteered with organizations including the Capital Area Food Bank, Martha’s Table and Habitat for Humanity ReStore, supporting efforts that provide food, housing resources, and other essential services to people throughout the communities we serve.
And the impact goes beyond the numbers. It’s the conversations, the connections, and the reminder that small acts of service can make a meaningful difference in someone’s day. We’re proud to work alongside partners who help people and families reach important milestones, and we’re excited to continue finding new ways to show up, lend a hand, and make an impact.
Protect Yourself from Fraud
Being a member of DOCFCU means more than helping you manage your money. It means helping you protect it, make the most of it, and stay connected to the communities we serve.
Fraudsters are always finding new ways to target consumers. Staying informed is one of the best ways to protect yourself and your money.
- Never share your password, PIN, one-time verification code, or other account information with someone who contacts you unexpectedly.
- Be cautious with unexpected texts, emails, or calls asking you to click a link or move money.
- Don’t assume a message is legitimate simply because it appears to come from a familiar company.
- When in doubt, contact the organization directly using a trusted phone number or website.
