LA JOYA, Texas (8/18/15)--Bienvenido a La Joya (Texas) Area FCU as the newest credit union to earn the Juntos Avanzamos designation.

The title certifies that the credit union has dedicated itself to serving the growing Hispanic population in Texas, Oklahoma and Arkansas.

Juntos Avanzamos, which in English means “Together We Advance,” is presented by the Cornerstone Credit Union League, and the league was on hand earlier this month when La Joya Area FCU celebrated the designation with a flag-raising ceremony (Leaguer Aug. 17).

Cornerstone President/CEO Dick Ensweiler gave a brief history of the Juntos Avanzamos designation during the event, and also explained what the campaign means for credit unions in the three states the league serves.

Ensweiler then presented Sergio Cruz, La Joya Area FCU president/CEO, with a plaque commemorating the designation.

La Joya Area is the 31st credit union to receive the designation.
