YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio – John Demmler, president and CEO of 717 Credit Union, and Tom Conley, president and CEO of the Greater Warren-Youngstown Urban League, announced a new program Tuesday that aims to have a positive impact by giving back to the community.
For each purchase made with the new affinity credit card, 7.17 cents will be donated to the Greater Warren-Youngstown Urban League. Each swipe of the card will benefit the Urban League’s initiatives to improve financial literacy, improve housing opportunities and more.
Qualifying applicants of the card can benefit from a 7.17% interest rate on all purchases and balance transfers made in the first 90 days. The rate will remain on the balances until they are paid off, and after 90 days a card’s rate will be adjusted based on the user.
