One of Listerhill’s goals is to support what is important to our members. Every year, Listerhill ask members and employees to participate in a charitable contribution survey which helps Listerhill choose the fundraising efforts members are passionate about. Two non-profits that always rise to the top of this list are American Cancer Society’s Relay for Life and St. Jude.
Listerhill and its employees have raised money for Relay for Life each year since 1995, raising nearly $100,000 over the last 10 years. In the Spring, branches sell t-shirts and wristbands to raise funds and awareness for this annual campaign.
Listerhill also supports St. Jude with an annual Fall fundraising campaign. In additional to this fundraiser, Listerhill donates $.50 to St. Jude for every deposit made into Good Start Savings account at no cost to you.
The Keystone Card is Listerhill's newest debit card that provides you an easy way to support UNA! For every purchase, Listerhill donates a portion of the amount you spend back to the University's students, alumni, athletics, and advancement programs.

Balancing a budget, buying a home or car, and planning retirement are just a few of the important financial decisions most of us have to make at some point.
A land loan provides you with financing to secure a lot of land and cover the costs for up to 20 years. With Listerhill, you can get a loan on unimproved land.
Once you’re ready to build, you can secure a different type of loan to cover construction costs.
If you aren’t sure how much you’ll need to borrow or when you'll need it, a Home Equity Line of Credit is a great option. Access ongoing cash for a set period of up to 10 years with low minimum payments until your withdrawal period is complete. Contrary to a Home Equity Loan, the interest on a HELOC is a variable rate and may be impacted by the status of the economy.
If you’re the type of person who takes a big-picture view when planning your financial decisions, a home equity loan may make the most sense. Since you’re borrowing a fixed amount at a fixed rate, you can plan how much you’ll pay for the loan in the long run from day one.
Home equity loans provide you with the opportunity to chase dreams to the fullest. Enjoy a vacation with the whole family, invest in a household remodeling project, or even finance an upcoming vehicle purchase with only a few clicks. If you can dream it, you can achieve it!
Home equity loans rely on a loan to value ratio (LTV) to disburse funds, meaning that your credit score and home equity value should be fairly substantial to take advantage of all possible benefits. For assistance in the home equity loan pre-approval process, please speak with your local Listerhill Credit Union branch.
