Our Community Salutes and Navy Federal Credit Union Partner to Celebrate New Armed Forces Patriots for 16th Consecutive Year
CHERRY HILL, NJ -- Our Community Salutes - USA (OCS) and Navy Federal Credit Union proudly announce the continuation of a long-standing partnership dedicated to supporting the nation’s newest enlistees and their families. This collaboration, which began over 15 years ago, underscores a shared commitment to providing essential resources and recognition as enlistees embark on their military journey.
“Navy Federal has been a crucial partner in carrying out the mission of OCS,” said Dr. Kenneth Hartman, OCS Founder and President. “The unique tools and information they are able to provide to new enlistees and their families is imperative as we establish the framework for a meaningful and successful path in the military.”
Navy Federal is active in over 30 OCS military enlistee recognition ceremonies this year, which honors more than 250,000 high school graduates! The partnership ensures that these new patriots and their families have access to the financial guidance and resources needed for success during their military service and beyond. Navy Federal acknowledges the unique financial landscape of military life and works to ensure military families can make informed decisions to achieve their financial goals.
“We’re proud to serve alongside OCS in our mission to equip military families for financial success,” said Keith Hoskins, EVP, Branch Operations at Navy Federal. “OCS ceremonies give us a unique chance to connect with novice servicemembers and their families to help them get a solid start on their financial journey. We want to be there to support and serve them every step of the way, and we’re grateful that partnerships like these allow us to do just that.”
The partnership between OCS and Navy Federal creates an essential ecosystem of support for every step of the military journey, and for every member of the military community.
