The Lady Wolves have been invited for the first time to play in a 2015 Holiday Tournament at Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida. This opportunity will make the upcoming season one they will never forget as they compete against some of the best teams from across the United States.

Coach Wendy Bartlett said, "In the nine years I have been in the district, no CFBISD Girls Basketball team has ever been able to play at this level and we have the chance to do it, but only if we have lots of help. We are a small school that can have a big impact!"

Since no money is provided by the school district to participate in this prestigious event, each member of the team is responsible for raising the money for her own trip. As a team, they need to raise $40,000 to make the trip to Orlando, Florida in order to participate in the Holiday Tournament. The team is trying to supplement the fundraising efforts so they do not fall short and miss out on this opportunity.

In an effort to help the team meet their goal, MOBILITY Credit Union donated $500 to Coach Bartlett and the team on April 20th. MOBILITY Credit Union will also host a car wash for the Ranchview Girls Basketball team on May 9th from 10AM-2PM at 8384 N Belt Line Rd, Irving TX. All proceeds raised will help the team meet their $40,000 goal to make it to Disney World.

Mark O’Bryan, MOBILITY Credit Union’s President and CEO, is glad to help. “MOBILITY Credit Union believes that you have to support our schools in order to truly be a part of the community.”

Please stop by and help support Ranchview High School Girls Basketball team reach their goal and make it to Disney World.

Irving, TX (Aug. 7, 2014) – MOBILITY Credit Union enlisted the help of staff and members at its Irving and Hurst branches to donate nearly 300 items of nonperishable food and hygiene items worth $575 to Metrocrest Services’ summer drive, a nonprofit organization that provides programs to aid self-sufficiency and independence for residents in North Texas, specifically Carrolton, Farmers Branch, Addison, Coppell, and the City of Dallas in Denton County.

Summer is one of Metrocrest Services food pantry’s busiest times. The organization serves over 100 families each week. With children out of school and not receiving school meals, more families are dependent upon the food pantry. Donations are needed, as 80% of Metrocrest Services food pantry’s items are donated by individuals and corporate supporters.

Mark O’Bryan, MOBILITY CU’s president and CEO, is glad to have participated. "MOBILITY Credit Union believes that you have to give back to the people you serve in order to truly be a part of the community. Our members and local community are very important to us."

Along with meeting the financial needs of the DFW and Houston communities for 49 years, MOBILITY CU has actively given back to the communities it serves through working with nonprofits, such as Metrocrest Services. The credit union is also a member of the Metrocrest Chamber of Commerce, Coppell Chamber of Commerce, and the Greater Irving-Las Colinas Chamber of Commerce.

Tracy Eubanks, CEO of Metrocrest Services, appreciates the donation. "Metrocrest Services food pantry serves many families and adults of all ages who really need our help. We wouldn’t be able to meet the need without the generous donations from companies, such as MOBILITY Credit Union."

MOBILITY Credit Union awards two graduating high school students its 5^th Annual Judy W Kelley Scholarship worth $2,000. The 2014 recipients are Rachel Rhodes of Sachse High School in Sachse, Texas and Claire Martin of John H. Guyer High School in Denton, Texas.

MOBILITY CU created the scholarship to give back to deserving credit union members, their children, and their grandchildren who were pursuing continuing education at a four-year college, community college or state-licensed technical school. The scholarship program was developed in honor of Judy W Kelley, MOBILITY CU’s former CEO who retired in 2010 after 41 years of service. Kelley valued education and community service.

Mark O’Bryan, MOBILITY CU president and CEO, sees the value in continuing the tradition. "MOBILITY Credit Union is invested in the future of its members. The scholarship shows them that we’re here for them at any life stage – college, marriage, children – no matter where they are," he said.

The two recipients were excited about being selected. Rhodes is a third-generation MOBILITY CU member who plans to study pediatric dentistry beginning at Austin Community College and then transferring to the University of Texas. Martin, one of five children and whose father has been a MOBILITY CU member for 20 years, looks forward to studying nursing at North Central Texas College.
