Credit unions worldwide celebrated International Credit Union Day on Wednesday, Oct. 18, under the theme “Find Your Platinum Lining.”

CUNA and the state leagues invite credit unions to a free, member-only webinar focused on the research, creative and digital strategies that have taken place in preparation for bringing the ‘Open Your Eyes’ awareness initiative to life. 

The League of Southeastern Credit Unions continues to work with a core group of 8 to 9 credit unions working in various stages of recovery following the devastation of Hurricane Michael. 

Last week, CUNA News reported how 49 Minnesota credit unions and partners participated in a statewide day of kindness, impacting over 335,000 people.

Oct. 18 is International Credit Union (ICU) Day, celebrating the theme--"Find Your Platinum Lining"--highlighting the spirit of the global credit union movement.

Forty-five credit union professionals were certified as Credit Union Development Educators (CUDEs) after completing the National Credit Union Foundation’s Credit Union Development Education (DE) Training.

For credit unions in the path of Hurricane Michael the first step toward recovery will be regaining power, according to Scott Teel, vice president of organizational development at Agility Recovery, a CUNA Strategic Services provider.

Sarah Vega, chief of staff and senior policy advisor to NCUA Board Chairman J. Mark McWatters, has been named as the Cooperative Credit Union Association’s new president/CEO.

On Tuesday, 49 Minnesota credit unions and partners participated in a statewide day of kindness.

The Worldwide Foundation for Credit Unions, the charitable arm of the World Council of Credit Unions, urges credit unions everywhere to expand the footprint of their efforts to improve member’s lives at home and abroad through a new initiative: the 2018 International Credit Union (ICU) Day Challenge.
