Illinois Credit Unions: Giving Back to Our Communities
Thursday, Mar 10, 2016 - Posted by Advertising Department [The following is a paid advertisement.] Credit unions exist to help people, not make a profit. It is this motto of ‘People Helping People’ that sets credit unions apart. Credit unions exist as member owned, not-for- profit financial institutions that have a strong sense of community. Historically, credit unions have championed the cause of supporting underserved communities. In its 36 years of service, the Illinois Credit Union Foundation has awarded more than $3.5 million in scholarships, community service grants, assistance to peer assistance programs, emergencies and natural disaster efforts, and community involvement projects. If you are not yet a credit union member, go to ASmarterChoice.org to discover of all the advantages that membership holds. Help to strengthen our communities from the inside out by becoming a credit union member today!
