Diversity, Equity, + Inclusion



A Place of Belonging

When you bank with Financial Plus, you're not just choosing a financial institution, you're choosing a partner dedicated to your success and the success of our community. As we focus on our DEI (diversity, equity, and inclusion) efforts, there's always more that needs to be done—and we love doing it. 

Together, we celebrate diversity, advocate for equity, and ensure that everyone's voice is heard and valued. Together, we can achieve remarkable things. By joining hands with our members and our community, we aim to create a positive and lasting impact on the lives of those around us. Together, we are stronger.


DEI is defined as:

  • Diversity – a broad spectrum of characteristics including race, skin color, ethnicity, national origin, sexual orientation, gender, gender identity, age, religion, language, disability, socioeconomic status, family structure, geographic differences, diversity of thought, life experiences, and more. Diversity is all the things that make us who we are.
  • Equity – identifies and removes barriers that may prevent marginalized groups from access to resources and information.
  • Inclusion – cultivating an environment that connects each employee to the organization; encouraging collaboration, flexibility, and fairness so that all individuals are empowered to participate and contribute to their full potential.

DEI in Action at Financial Plus

Our commitment to diversity begins within our walls. Here are a few examples of the ways we've integrated DEI in our workplace.

Multicultural Potluck

To celebrate diversity and encourage connection, we hosted a company-wide Multicultural Potluck, inviting employees to share dishes from their cultures. It was a delicious and meaningful way to learn about and appreciate the rich diversity within our team.
