Desert Financial Credit Union Opens Willow Creek Branch

Desert Financial Credit Union marked the grand opening of its newest branch, 3179 Lakeview Plaza Lane in Prescott, with a ribbon-cutting ceremony Friday, Nov. 1. The day’s celebration included a ribbon-cutting ceremony and random acts of kindness.

 In honor of its new Prescott branch, Desert Financial contributed more than $60,000 to local nonprofits during a “Week of Giving” leading up to the grand opening ceremony. Donations will benefit Prescott organizations dedicated to enhancing the community, including Prescott Area Shelter Services, Friends of Prescott Library and The Launch Pad Teen Center.

 “Strong communities create economic opportunity and increase financial well-being for everyone,” said Desert Financial Credit Union President and CEO Jeff Meshey. “As we expand in the Prescott area, Desert Financial is focused on giving back and ensuring that our presence is felt not only through our financial services but through meaningful support to our neighbors.”

 
The Prescott branch will be open from 9 a.m.-6 p.m., Monday through Friday and 9 a.m.-1 p.m., Saturdays. Credit union representatives say the branch is unique among Desert Financial locations in that it offers medallion signature guarantees. This special service verifies the authenticity of signatures on documents transferring securities. 

 “This grand opening is more than just the launch of a new Desert Financial Credit Union branch – it represents a commitment to the Prescott community,” said Prescott Branch Manager Jonathan Knight. “The team members at our branch live here, we work here, and we are dedicated to making sure Prescott remains one of the best places to live in all of Arizona.” QCBN
