Enfield recently celebrated International Credit Union Day which marked it’s 76th
Anniversary. There are 403 million members in 98 countries, and TVTFCU joined them in celebrating the not-for-profit cooperative
spirit that all credit unions share.
This cooperative spirit has led to life-changing opportunities for people all
over the world who have wanted to start a small business, own a home, or
continue their education but were denied access by other financial
institutions. In many parts of the world, people’s first taste of democracy is
through their credit union, where “one member, one vote” is the governing
structure. At its most basic level, a credit union is comprised of a
group of people pooling their money to provide each other with affordable
loans—it is literally people helping people. Any profit
made by a credit union is returned to its members through higher savings rates
and lower loan rates. Credit unions empower people, wherever they
are in the world or in life, to take control of their financial future.
TVTFCU celebrated by providing giveaways, refreshments and prizes
for its members.
“We enjoy celebrating Credit Union Day with our members. This is a
day to show appreciation for our members as well as remember all the benefits
the credit union movement has provided to individuals worldwide. It is also a
day to recognize the hard work of our staff and volunteer board members,” said Lori
Triba, CEO/Manager for the Tobacco Valley Teachers Federal Credit Union.
