Thank You For Living Out "People Helping People"
The credit union movement was built on the ideal of "people helping people". Today, we know that still rings true in the actions of Iowa's credit unions and their staff.

Events that have occurred throughout our country's history and the recent civil unrest are saddening, though the opportunity for peaceful protests and conversations of change in support of the Black community is uplifting, and gives hope for a better tomorrow.

As a movement, we come together in times of crisis, and ever-continue to push forward to create a stronger credit union community for all. We want to take this time to thank you for living out the people helping people philosophy and for identifying ways to do more, because when we are standing together, we are stronger together.
