Investment Services
CVF Credit Union strives to give you the best possible value for your money. Realizing every member is an individual as well as an owner, the foundation of the credit union has been to focus on financial products and services that provide a strong return on the money you have invested with us. This is why CVF Credit Union partnered with Ave Maria Mutual Funds to offer you Morally Responsible Investing (MRI).
What is Morally Responsible Investing?
Morally responsible investing (MRI) is a subset of socially responsible investing, which often screens out companies engaged in environmental issues, tobacco products, alcohol, nuclear power, defense, oil and “unfair” labor practices. MRI is different in that it screens out companies engaged in abortion, embryonic stem cell research and pornography. MRI is both pro‐life and pro‐family and may appeal to investors with similar ideals.
Ave Maria Mutual Funds are available to individuals, dioceses, parishes and other institutions seeking investments in companies that do not violate core teachings of the Roman Catholic Church. For more information, call 866-AVE-MARIA (1-866-283-6274) or visit
