Check Out the New ICUF Website!
Our new website is live!  As the Iowa Credit Union Foundation (ICUF) continues to expand its impact, it's important that the Foundation has a platform to showcase resources and garner support of initiatives.

As we enter our 25th anniversary year in 2020, our vision remains unchanged: to be the leader in facilitating collaborative initiatives and the hub for credit union philanthropy. We hope our new website will provide an easy-to-use resource for credit unions, members and the community.
