LAKE MARY, Fla. (April 1, 2026) – Addition Financial Credit Union is making it easier than ever for members to build confidence with their finances by launching new, interactive financial education tools as part of its expanded Financial Education Resource Center.

Timed with Financial Literacy Month in April, the enhanced resource center introduces free, mobile-friendly courses and an engaging educational video library designed to meet members wherever they are on their financial journey. The new tools provide flexible, self-paced learning opportunities that fit into busy schedules while helping members make informed financial decisions.


“At Addition Financial, we believe financial education should be accessible, relevant and built around the real lives of our members,” said Nora Rodriguez-Patterson, Chief Communications Officer at Addition Financial Credit Union. “Whether someone is just getting started, planning for a major milestone, or looking to strengthen their financial habits, these tools are designed to meet them where they are and empower them with the knowledge and confidence to move forward.”


The expanded offerings include:

· Everfi Achieve™, a mobile-friendly online platform featuring interactive courses that allow members to learn at their own pace while building practical financial skills on topics such as banking basics, budgeting, purchasing a home, and managing credit and debt.

· It’s a Money Thing®, a dynamic digital video library that simplifies complex financial topics like credit, interest and budgeting into engaging, easy-to-understand content -- making it especially effective for younger members and families beginning their financial journey.


Together, these resources reflect Addition Financial’s ongoing commitment to supporting financial wellness across all stages of life.

In addition to these digital tools, Addition Financial plans to expand its in-person financial education efforts later this year by incorporating materials from Everfi into community workshops designed to further support members and local communities.
