LOS ANGELES – Water and Power Community Credit Union has joined forces with non-profit El Rescate and No Borders/Sin Fronteras, which provides low-cost remittances and telephone communications between the United States and Latin America, to serve the Latino community of Pico Union here with a mini branch. “This alliance will serve as a model to the Latino community of Los Angeles,” said WPCCU President/CEO Carl Stewart. “It is a matter of respect for people of all countries that affordable financing and legal services are actually available in their community.
