ABCO Helps Finance New Clean Energy VehiclesThrough a joint venture with the Atlantic City Jitney Association, ABCO has helped jitney association drivers finance new clean energy vehicles. The new fleet of 190 vehicles is clean-running, cost-efficient, domestically-fueled, Compressed Natural Gas-powered jitney shuttle buses. It is reported that the fleet conversion is the largest ever on the East Coast.
The word “jitney” is a slang word for nickel, which is what it cost in 1915 for a ride in one of Atlantic City’s earliest “buses.” Even though the price has increased, the name stuck. The first jitneys looked very similar to regular cars and were, in fact, large, black Ford model-T touring cars which used a rope-and-pulley system to open the back doors. Now you can ride around Atlantic City and even to the airport in a modern eco-friendly vehicle.
The Atlantic City Jitney Association, established in 1915, claims to be the longest-running unsubsidized transit company in the United States. ABCO has had a strong relationship with the Jitney Association, its drivers and staff—most of whom are credit union members. We are proud to have helped our members and helped the environment.
Avoid Dormant Account Fees and Escheat (sending the funds to the state)
Dormant accounts are defined as accounts that have had no activity on shares/savings or loans for a period of 12 months or more. When this inactivity period has been reached, we will begin to notify you that your account has fallen into the dormant status. This means that unless activity resumes, your account may be subject to fees and ultimately escheated. Accounts that remain inactive will be assessed a monthly fee of $15 beginning with the 18th month of inactivity. Also, New Jersey statutes require that any account that remains inactive for a three-year period is escheated (the funds are sent) to the State Treasury Department.
These actions are easily avoidable by simply utilizing the products and services that ABCO membership provides. You also have the option to close your account. To find out more about all our services, please visit our website, goabco.org, or call Member Care at 800-225-1859.

ABCO Adds Two to Business DepartmentABCO’s Business Department is growing. As of January 2013, two new people will be on board to serve the business community.
John C. Hall is the Director of Business Development and Government Relations. As such he will be responsible for developing relationships with school districts and municipalities for deposits and lending needs. He previously held the position of Vice President, Government Banking with Beneficial Bank.
Robert H. King is the Director of Commercial Lending. He was previously a Senior Vice President of Roma Bank where he served as the leader of the bank’s Southern Region Commercial Loan Center. Mr. King has held executive positions within the Delaware Valley banking community for over 30 years.
ABCO FCU Co-CEO Ellen Kuiper Named a South Jersey Biz Magazine’s executive of the Year
The editors of South Jersey Biz magazine asked their readers to nominate 20 business leaders who have been at the front of industry changes and economic growth.
Ellen Kuiper, President and co-CEO of ABCO Federal Credit Union, was among the 20 business leaders chosen as 2012 Executive of the Year. She was also featured on the magazine’s cover.
Mrs. Kuiper likes to say she’s done every job there is at ABCO, and she’s not exaggerating. Now in her 41st year with the company,
she got her start when she was just 17, working out of CEO Milton Hershberger’s garage. Now out of the garage, ABCO has grown to nine branches located throughout South Jersey and has grown to $175 million in assets. Mrs. Kuiper went from being the first and only employee to overseeing the 78 now working under the company’s umbrella.
“We work as a team and everyone deserves credit to what this has now become,” Mrs. Kuiper likes to say. “I love every minute of it.”

Director of Commercial Lending
