Family Ties in Biloxi, MS

Hope Credit Union has been there for Allison Omelia during tough times in her life. When the preschool teacher’s car needed repairs, she was approved for a loan by HOPE. “Without a car, I wouldn’t have a job. I wouldn’t be able to go to school. I had nowhere to turn and HOPE helped me out.” Allison paid off the loan and improved her credit in the process, opening the door for her to get approved for a cell phone. Later, when Allison needed surgery, her husband secured a loan from HOPE to cover the insurance deductible. The couple has since opened checking accounts with HOPE and plan to one day finance a new home.
