VyStar Credit Union announced today it has earned the Top 10 Military Friendly® Company designation from VIQTORY, a recognition that is indicative of the credit union’s longtime commitment to supporting military members, veterans and their families. VyStar was one of two credit unions to earn the designation in its category.

VyStar has also earned the following designations for 2023:

  • Military Friendly® Employer by recruiting, hiring and training of veterans.

  • Military Friendly® Spouse Employer by recruiting, hiring and training of military spouses.

  • Top 10 Military Friendly® Supplier Diversity Program by partnering with and supporting veteran-owned businesses.

  • Top 10 Military Friendly® Brand for commitment to military consumer protections and having a positive brand reputation in the military community.

“It is an honor for VyStar to be recognized as an organization that cares deeply about the military community,” said VyStar President/CEO Brian Wolfburg. “From individuals to families to small business owners, we are committed to providing opportunities to the brave men and women who have served our country. These important designations will help us continue to attract, develop and retain top talent and further support the communities we serve.”

Military Friendly® is the standard that measures an organization’s commitment, effort and success in creating sustainable and meaningful benefits for the military community. Organizations who received these designations were evaluated using both public data sources and responses from a proprietary survey. Over a thousand companies participated in the 2023 Military Friendly® survey.

VyStar was founded at Naval Air Station Jacksonville in 1952. More than 70 years later, the credit union remains committed to supporting military members, veterans and their families through internal programs for employees and external programs for members and community partners.
