3 Essentials

The 3 Essentials program is Magnifi Financial Credit Union’s social-giving program. Since 2016, we have been providing food, shelter, and clothing together. Get an essential financial account or loan, and we'll give an essential back to local communities.

About the 3 Essentials Program

Each day when we come into the office, we know that because of our work today, fewer people are going to be homeless, hungry, or cold tonight. Giving back to the communities we serve is something Magnifi values and encourages. We help our members and communities build financial confidence, strengthen their futures, and focus on what matters most.

Get a financial essential, give a life essential
