We’re now accepting applications for the 2024 Local Heroes Grant Program.
Applications close July 31st.
With every swipe of a Local Heroes affinity debit card, Gesa members earn funds designated for grants in that card’s Local Heroes category (Firefighters, Healthcare Workers, Law Enforcement, Educators, and Veterans).
The Local Heroes Grants Program awards these funds to eligible organizations that support Local Heroes in our communities.
The funding varies depending on the amount raised the prior year through the Local Heroes affinity debit card. Grants are awarded in October.
Given back to our communities in 2024:
To qualify for a Local Heroes Grant, an organization must provide proof that the requested funds will support Firefighters, Healthcare Workers, Law Enforcement, Educators, or Veterans in our community.

Principal withdrawn before maturity is included in the amount subject to early withdrawal penalty. You can withdraw interest only on the crediting dates without penalty.

Minimum deposit balance must be maintained to earn APY and fees may reduce earnings on the account. Special offer for a limited time only. | RXNQ72MLYV9C |
