Tell Your Credit Union Story
Since the start of credit unions in the 1850s, "people helping people" has been the philosophy of the credit union movement.
 
Every day, credit unions and their members live the " people helping people" philosophy - and everyone has a story. Whether it is a professional brand story, a member impact story or a community impact story - we want to hear yours!

Iowa Credit Union Convention Community Impact Project
Each year as part of the Iowa Credit Union Convention, a group of volunteers, including Crashers, partake in a community impact project. Register to participate in this year's project with our 2019 Crashers during convention.

This year's event will take place on Wednesday, September 18. Credit union volunteers from across the state will read to Des Moines area children and create literacy kits to encourage engaging learning experiences.

From Kindergarten through 3rd grade, students are learning to read. After 3rd grade, they must read to learn. Once they fall behind, it's nearly impossible to catch up. Children who aren't reading proficiently by 3rd grade are four times more likely to drop out of school, directly affecting their financial future. Learn more and sign up here .
