One of Callahan & Associates 2022 goals is to increase our Impact Network members and how we impact our community of credit union leaders. We’re devoting much of our content this year to talk about impact, including how credit unions are looking at impact, measuring it, and living it in their cooperatives.

In January we were excited to celebrate our Impact Theme Week on CreditUnions.com and we did a series on the ‘Anatomy of VSECU’.

Impact Theme Week Recap

Credit Unions and Employee Impact – Find out more on how United Federal Credit Union ($3.8B, St. Joseph, MI) and the Teachers Credit Union ($4.3B, South Bend, IN) are connecting institutional mission and employee engagement.

Credit Unions and Member Impact –Learn from Nusenda Credit Union ($3.7B, Albuquerque, NM), Affinity Federal Credit Union ($3.7B, Basking Ridge, NJ) and Southwest Louisiana Credit Union ($156.1M, Lake Charles, LA) on how they are making a difference with their members.

Credit Unions and Community Impact –Learn from Verity Credit Union ($763.1M, Seattle, WA) about how they and four other credit unions are contributing the final piece of financing for an affordable housing project to serve the city’s residents. See how State Employees’ Credit Union ($51.0B, Raleigh, NC) is building better neighborhoods one affordable house at a time and how they support their small community.

Anatomy of the VSECU

As a values-based organization, Vermont State Employees Credit Union (VSECU – $1.1B, Montpelier, VT) takes seriously the cooperative principle of concern for the community which is evident in the programs it supports all across the organization. In This quarter’s Anatomy of A Credit Union, we dig in and learn more about the VSECU and its impact on the community it serves.

Get Involved

The impact network is free to join and, as a part of our network, we will provide you with access to the latest peer impact findings and insights as well as invites to impact-related events such as the Impact Network Meet-up. Additionally, impact network members will receive a monthly newsletter that features impact-related content and downloadable copies of impact reports that other credit unions have provided.

This month was a fantastic month when it came to generating value for credit union members and employees. We look forward to welcoming new credit unions into the network as together we evolve the credit union story.
