Volume 9 I September 2021
Credit Union Month is Approaching!

There is a philosophy behind Credit Union Day: the ultimate goal is to raise awareness about the tremendous work that Credit Unions and other financial cooperatives are doing around the world and give members the opportunity to get more engaged. The day of festivities for Credit Unions and financial cooperatives globally includes fundraisers, open houses, contests, picnics, volunteering and parades.

On October 21, 2021, our global Credit Union family will join together to celebrate the 73rd anniversary of ICU Day®! 

This year's theme is "Building financial health for a brighter tomorrow."

This year we are planning a Credit Union Day 2021 to remember, so stay tuned!
Mrs. Alana Goodridge-George-Mejias was born into the Credit Union Philosophy through the means that established Credit Unions in Trinidad and Tobago: the Union. Great-niece of Ms. Thelma Williams and grand-daughter of Ms. Cizerena Tidd, two of the famed women of the Charlie King incident, meant growing up in a household that fought for persons' rights in an effort to improve the living and working conditions for their fellow man.

Mrs. Mejias joined the public service in 2001 as a Lab Assistant at the Ministry of Education. She firmly believes that the future lies with the youth and they should be given every opportunity to expand their minds, grow and flourish. “Helping children learn and succeed” became the philosophy she preached and therefore evolved the culture at her school.

She automatically gravitated to the Public Services Association to continue the family tradition of "people helping people" but as time passed and the world evolved, the Union did not and so she gravitated to the other facet of people helping people, the Credit Union. She had already been a member of PSCU since the age of fifteen (15) and made the conscious decision to become more involved. Mrs. Mejias became a Liaison Officer, which allowed her to learn more about the services offered to members and afforded her the joy of meeting people and spreading the word of Credit Unionism. She served as the Secretary of the Southern Advisory Committee and was then selected to join the Education Committee where she served as Secretary for three (3) years before being elected to serve on the Board of Directors, where she served as Secretary and currently serves as Vice-President 

Mrs. Mejias holds academic accomplishments in Natural Sciences, Industrial Relations, Credit Union Management, CaribDE and ITIL. She is an avid natural esthetician constantly formulating personalized products for her customers, a practicing painter and the proud co-owner of Sugar Stone Company.

Mrs. Mejias is firmly committed to the survival and evolution of PSCU and by extension, the Credit Union Movement. Credit Unionism is rooted in the growth of persons academically, socially, financially and psychologically which means the growth of a people and growth as a country.

Here's what our Members are saying....

Stephanie Sylvester-Looknanan, Chaguanas Member

I have been affiliated with PSCU since November 2006. A representative introduced their services at our nursing school in Palms Club, San Fernando, so I came on board. Being paid a small stipend, I opened four Shares Accounts for three sons and myself with minimal contributions. However, the dollars eventually added up. 

Over the years, my membership afforded me two major loans to accomplish life goals, and one of those included funding my child’s studies at the University of the West Indies, Cave Hill. Additionally, my son benefitted from PSCU as a S.E.A recipient back in 2008. He even had the opportunity to complete an internship program. 

Furthermore, we have utilised other products including the Onyx VISA Debit card (which I use to do my online shopping) and the Family Indemnity Plan (F.I.P). Even at a crucial point in my life during 2019, I was advised and my request was accommodated. 

Overall, my relationship with PSCU has been a great benefit to my family. Also, all my transactions are conducted at the Chaguanas Branch where I receive efficient customer service from courteous staff members. 

I wish the PSCU family continued success.
