All One Credit Union will hold a Shred-A-Thon at its headquarters located at 20 Adams Street, Leominster, MA on Saturday, April 13, 2013 from 8:30–Noon.

Members and non-members can get rid of old, sensitive documents by shredding and recycling them at the Shred-A-Thon.  All items will be shred on site by a secure shredding service, Northeast Data Shredding.

Members of the community can bring up to three legal size file boxes or kitchen sized trash bags to be shred for free.  However we will be accepting donations to Habitat for Humanity during the event.  The Shred-A-Thon helps raise awareness about recycling, the upcoming Earth Day and of course the importance of shredding personal documents to protect against identity theft.

Important documents to bring to the Shred-A-Thon include bank statements, tax returns, medical bills, credit card statements and other personal documents.

For more information contact Joanne Lattanzi, Marketing Manager 978-466-7240 or marketing@all-onecu.com.

All One Credit Union Is excited to announce that for the second year in a row, we will be providing assistance to first-time homebuyers through a $150,000 grant from the Federal Home Loan Bank’s Equity Builder Program.  This year, eligible homebuyers can receive up to $15,000 in down payment and closing cost assistance.

All One Credit Union granted $60,000 in 2012 to six first- time homebuyers.  Each recipient was awarded $10,000 to assist with their down payment and closing costs. 

To qualify, buyers must meet the Equity Builder Program qualifications criteria, which include income limits.  According to Brenda Bujnevicie, Vice President of Real Estate Operations, “The income limit for a family of four in Worcester County is $64,400, which is less restrictive than many would expect.” 

 “For many first time buyers, this assistance means the difference between whether or not they can fulfill their dream of becoming homeowners,” said Bujnevicie.  “This year, the additional funds and the increase from $10,000 to $15,000 maximum per applicant, means we can help even more first time homebuyers than we did last year.”

Income limits vary from county to county.  For more information and eligibility guidelines, call and speak with a mortgage specialist at 800-649-4646.  The funds will be available until the grant is depleted.
