Please be aware of the following changes to our Skip-A-Pay Program Eff. 08/01/2024
Eligibility Requirements:
- There is a $30 Non-refundable processing fee for each monthly payment skipped, which may be paid by cash or funds on deposit.
- You must be an owner of the specified account to request a Skip-A-Payment. Loan(s) must be active for six (6) months.
- Member must be in good standing and the request must be within the member’s payment grace period. Skipped payment requests outside of the grace period will be denied.
- Members may request two (2) Skip-A-Payments per calendar year. No more than two (2) consecutive months skips. No more than a maximum of six (6) skipped payments over the life of the loan.
- Some loan products are not eligible for Skip-A-Payment. Please consult a representative for more information.
Important Information:
A Skip-A-Payment is a modification to your loan agreement. Any payment(s) skipped will extend the term of your loan by one month per skip and you agree to continue to make payments of the same amount until what you owe is repaid. Skipping payments will increase the amount of interest you pay over the life of the loan. Ancillary products such as life, disability or debt protection will continue to accrue. Multiple Skip-A-Payments may reduce a potential Guaranteed Asset Protection (GAP) claim, contact your provider for more details about how Skip-A-Payment may affect your coverage. You are responsible for suspending any automatic payments you may have initiated for each monthly payment you are requesting to skip. CorePlus Federal Credit Union reserves the right to deny any request to skip payments. If you are eligible and your request is approved, your request will be processed for the months you have selected to skip. If your request is not approved, you will be notified within five (5) business days of the receipt of your request.

NORWICH, CT — CorePlus Credit Union has started collecting backpacks and school supplies at its branch locations, with the goal of providing as many children as possible with the materials they need to thrive in the new school year.
CorePlus is again partnering with UCFS Healthcare on this effort. Supplies will be collected throughout the summer and distributed from 1-3 p.m. on August 7th at UCFS’s Edward & Mary Lord Family Health Center, located at 47 Town Street in Norwich.
In addition to public donations, CorePlus employees have given generously to this effort in previous years. This year, CorePlus and its employees plan to match the first 50 donations of new backpacks, ensuring that at least 100 children will receive assistance.
“A solid education starts with giving children the tools they need to be successful,” said Raymond Currier, President and CEO of CorePlus Credit Union. “Last year, through our partnership with UCFS, CorePlus employees and members provided 114 backpacks and supplies that were distributed to children in our community. The need is great and we’re hoping to help even more families this year. Please join us in this effort by dropping off a backpack and supplies at any of our branch locations.”
Drop boxes for donations, creatively decorated by CorePlus employees, will be set up at each CorePlus branch location starting on June 24th. Collection boxes will also be set up at UCFS
locations.
The backpack drive is seeking the following items:
- New backpacks
- Writing and drawing materials, including pens, pencils, highlighters, markers, crayons, colored pencils, large pink erasers, and eraser caps
- Art supplies including loose leaf paper, glue sticks, liquid glue, blunt tip scissors, pencils, sharpeners, and rulers
- Organizational materials including three-ring binders, pencil boxes, zippered pouches, and two-pocket folders
- Spiral and composition notebooks
In addition to these in-kind donations, CorePlus will accept monetary donations toward the bulk purchase of backpacks and school supplies. Checks should be made payable to CorePlus Credit Union, with the note ATTN: Brittany Uphold or Eric Blackburn, and accompanied by a letter designating the amount and purpose of the funds. Monetary donations can be dropped off at any CorePlus branch location or mailed to CorePlus’s main office at 202 Salem Turnpike, Norwich, CT, 06360.
Children who have adequate school supplies are not only better prepared to participate in school activities and assignments, but also more confident in their own abilities and interested in learning. Unfortunately, for thousands of families in Connecticut struggling to afford basic needs, it can be difficult or impossible to purchase these school supplies. This annual drive helps families meet this need while also easing the burden on teachers, who often report that they spend their own funds on supplies for their students.
Donations will be accepted through August 5th. In the interim between this cutoff date and the giveaway, CorePlus employees work to fill the backpacks with supplies and to create separate ones for older and younger students.
The distribution of backpacks and supplies on August 7th takes place during Community Health Center Week and is held in conjunction with family-friendly events at the Edward & Mary Lord Family Health Center. In addition to the backpack giveaway, CorePlus will also have an ice cream freezer on the premises to provide visitors with a sweet treat.
Additional partners at the event will provide information, giveaways, activities, and other useful information. These include UCFS Healthcare and the Uncas Health District.

NORWICH, CT — CorePlus Credit Union has installed two electric vehicle (EV) charging stations at its East Lyme branch, providing a convenient and environmentally friendly service to all visitors.
The Level 2 charging stations, each capable of serving one battery electric or plug-in hybrid vehicle, will be open to the public and free to all CorePlus Credit Union members.
“We are the first financial institution in Southeastern Connecticut to install EV charging stations,” said Ray Currier, President and CEO of CorePlus Credit Union. “These stations represent CorePlus Credit Union’s commitment to lowering the carbon footprint and reducing greenhouse gas emissions in Connecticut. CorePlus is looking into the possibility of installing EV charging stations at additional locations as well.”
Connecticut has experienced strong growth in EV ownership in recent years, according to data from the Connecticut Department of Energy and Environmental Protection (DEEP). There were 44,313 electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles registered in the state at the end of 2023, compared to just 4,878 at the end of 2016.
Connecticut has more than 360 public EV charging stations. DEEP has been encouraging the installation of EV charging stations at homes, workplaces, and transportation hubs to help grow Connecticut’s charging infrastructure.
