The World Council of Credit Unions and Worldwide Foundation for Credit Unions (WFCU) plan to lead that celebration by asking for credit unions to share their member empowerment stories on ICU Day, while WFCU Executive Director Mike Reuter is also leading an Empower Campaign to raise $500,000 for the global credit union movement. He joins the podcast to discuss that.
The podcast shares an example of one such empowerment story from Ukraine, where a credit union association empowered an employee from one of its member credit unions to improve both her financial future and her safety. That employee, Oksana Hovorushchenko, shares her very personal story as an example of how our movement can empower its members.
Credit Union Magazine’s Summer 2023 issue highlights the lending outlook for the rest of the year, how credit unions leverage fintech companies to boost digital lending, the power of lending partnerships, common Bank Secrecy Act violations, and the shift board members must make when becoming chair.
