CU Make a Difference Day 2025: Turning Plastic into Purpose

On a recent federal holiday when our branches were closed, our staff came together to turn your donated plastic grocery bags into 15 sleep mats for the temporarily unhoused in our community, an inspiring collaboration with our community partners at Americorps St. Louis

This hands-on team building project brought together our staff in the spirit of our "All In" values and community support.

We would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone who donated the bags used in our project. Together we are proving that small actions can lead to big impact!

How shredding can protect your identity

Even if you’re really careful about the information you put online, your printed files can still be an easy target for identity thieves and should never go directly in the trash.

To  help you protect your personal information, we periodically host shred days at our Columbia locations. We bring a data destruction truck to our parking lot where you can shred your outdated sensitive documents for FREE.

 

What you should shred 

 
LIMITATIONS:
• We cannot shred cardboard boxes
