Motivate

We stimulate engagement and encourage people to take action about the things that matter most to credit unions and their members.

Our goal is to motivate and lift others as we work together to make a difference for credit unions and their members.

Educational Resources to Help You Move the Needle

We believe you must educate, uplift, collaborate, and support others to see real change happen.

Our mission is to get as many people to understand and embrace what we believe to be the new reality of credit unions. From our UNDERGROUND discussions, we’ve created the School of Thought, with educational resources you can use at your credit union to motivate your employees, managers, and board members. Here are some recent topics available:

Standing Up Together for Credit Unions, We Can Accomplish So Much More

While we cannot champion every cause in our world, we make great efforts to support social issues that directly impact the credit union industry and the members we serve. 

Our goal is to motivate and inspire others to make a difference in their credit unions and the communities they serve. And taking that one step further, we provide opportunities for you to give a hand to others, lend support, or simply donate to a cause in need worldwide.

Polish American Credit Union Support Fund

As a Board member of the Worldwide Foundation, we are giving time, fundraising, and making personal donations to support the Foundation’s efforts in Ukraine. By donating to this fund, you and your credit union can help Ukrainians during great distress and need.

If you change your mindset, you have the ability to change your whole world.

Initially launched in Washington, D.C., as part of the UNDERGROUND Collision, CU Pride is a formal organization focused on driving vulnerable collaboration around critical issues impacting the credit union LGBTQ+ community and the members they serve. CU Pride is a crucial component of all diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives and will stand up to have a voice within the industry.

The most effective way to do it is to do it.
