Credit Union Awareness

  • It's Time to Open Consumers' Eyes to a Credit Union!

    Credit Union Awareness will help credit unions break barriers by putting them at the center of consumer consideration to join. It will assist all credit unions in their work to:

    • Reduce the impact of consumer belief in myths such as “I can't join” or “it's only local” that keep affecting the credit union movement
    • Put credit unions at the forefront when considering financial services and products
    • Create opportunities to grow credit union membership

    With your contribution, collectively as a movement we will boost ROA and bring a greater share of the 93% of consumer assets held by banks to credit unions. Together, we can bring more consumers to their best financial partner - credit unions.
