The Credit Union Impact Foundation, the charitable arm of The League of Credit Unions & Affiliates, is proud to announce a major expansion of its disaster relief capabilities with the launch of the new Disaster Response Vehicle, a fully equipped 48-foot mobile relief unit developed through a strategic partnership with ServeComm.
Credit unions consistently step up when disaster strikes—providing critical support to members, employees, and communities once officials confirm it is safe for relief efforts to begin. This new partnership builds on that commitment, ensuring help reaches the areas that need it most.
The unit can be deployed within 24 hours anywhere across The League’s four-state footprint and operates as a fully equipped mobile relief center, offering critical post-disaster support for credit union staff, members, and surrounding communities. Featuring an onboard generator, washers and dryers, portable showers, and satellite internet, through Starlink, to restore connectivity when traditional infrastructure is down, the vehicle becomes a central hub for recovery, providing essential hygiene services and Wi-Fi access so members can reconnect with loved ones or begin filing insurance claims.
“Several years ago, we started talking with The League about what they do in disasters and how our partnership could really take it to the next level,” said Mike O’Brien, Founder of ServeComm. “Seeing this vehicle come to life shows what can happen when organizations come together with a shared purpose.”
The partnership also gives credit unions access to ServeComm’s equipment for community events, strengthening local relationships long before disaster ever strikes, and builds on ServeComm’s proven disaster recovery experience since 2018.
“This partnership reflects our deep commitment to giving back and strengthening community resilience,” said Bobbi Grady, Executive Director of the Credit Union Impact Foundation. “The Disaster Response Vehicle reinforces that promise—ensuring credit unions can extend their support even further and stand ready to serve communities when they need it most.”
The Credit Union Impact Foundation extends its sincere appreciation to the sponsors who made this vehicle possible: Corporate America Credit Union and Corporate One Federal Credit Union. Their generosity and shared belief in the credit union mission helped transform this project from concept to reality.
