A Tradition of Offering Better Choices
Grown locally, LGE began as the dream of seven Lockheed Martin employees to find a better way to bank for their co-workers. That dream now means anyone, not just Lockheed employees, who lives in the metro Atlanta area can save money by banking with LGE.

At LGE, were about putting more money in your pocket to live life your way, Henderson said. And that means the best options and smarter banking choices for you and your family to help grow your finances.
With 67 years of expertise, LGE helps its 113,000 members in the Atlanta area build their wealth while receiving personal attention. Members bank with people who live here, have grown up here, and care about their neighbors and community.

Not-For-Profit Status Puts Money Where It Belongs In Members Pockets
How does LGE do it? As a not-for-profit entity, LGE Community is owned by its members and has a board of directors who are all volunteers. This means LGE saves money and returns that savings to members. LGEs goal is simple, Henderson assured: Help members build healthy financial futures through LGEs competitive personal and business banking options.

Making smart choices with LGE can begin almost at birth. A youth savings account can be opened as soon as the child has a Social Security number, Henderson said. And the child can have an account that yields 5.00% APY on the first $1,000 till they are 23.

For convenience, members can opt to use LGEs online and phone services. Mobile banking, mobile apps, alerts, bill pay, and 24-hour automated phone banking keep members informed and on top of their finances.

Employee Satisfaction Leads to Member Satisfaction
Theres a reason LGE has been consistently recognized among the top places to work in the annual AJC poll, Henderson said. The way LGE treats its employees is amazing, and that positive spirit transfers over to the treatment of members.

Helping Their Neighbors
LGE is also committed to giving back to the greater community through the LGE Foundation. In 2018, the Foundation donated $200,000 to local charities. Henderson and other Alpharetta employees have already hosted parties for Childrens Health Care of Atlanta and have volunteered to paint homes for families in need. Each year, the branch will support a local charity and will partner with a local middle or high school. These partnerships help teens become informed, so that they are encouraged to make smart choices even before they are financially independent.

Emphasizing the family spirit that has characterized LGE for 67 years, Henderson added, We hope to have our members build a financial relationship for life. They wont want to go anywhere else.
