On October 20, 2022, Community Credit Union will join over 56,000 credit unions around the world to celebrate International Credit Union (ICU) Day®. The theme of ICU Day 2022 is “Empower Your Financial Future with a Credit Union.”
ICU Day highlights the many ways that credit unions across the world help members improve their financial health and well-being.
Credit unions were built on the principle of “people helping people.” “We’ve seen that philosophy in action for more than 100 years, with credit unions providing access to affordable financial products and striving to meet the needs of underserved communities,” said Barbara Messner, Community Credit Union President.
Community Credit Union is honored to be a part of this proud tradition, as they celebrate 80 years of service to our communities this year.
Did you know that credit unions account for more than $226 billion in economic impact every year, and collectively serve more than 130 million members across the U.S.?
“Ultimately our goal is for more people to understand the important role credit unions play in their community,” said Megan Crowson, manager of consumer engagement for CUNA. “If we can encourage someone to reach out to a credit union for help on their financial journey, then this program was a success!”
On this International Credit Union Day®, or any day of the year for that matter, know that your local Credit Union is there to help you achieve your financial goals.
