In total, $49,282 was donated to nonprofit partners across six counties: Conservation Corps North Bay in Sonoma, UpValley Family Centers in Napa, Canal Alliance in Marin, North Coast Opportunities in Lake and Mendocino, and Larkin Street Youth Services in San Francisco. All these organizations share a focus on job training, helping individuals acquire the skills needed to secure stable employment and achieve financial self-sufficiency.
“ICU Day provides an excellent opportunity for RCU to fulfill our purpose of inspiring hope and elevating the financial well-being of our communities,” says RCU President and CEO Brett Martinez. “We’re honored to play an important role in empowering people to make informed financial decisions that help them achieve their goals and dreams.”
While credit unions have been serving communities for well over a century, this year’s International Credit Union Day marks 75 years of credit unions celebrating together on a single day the concept of “people helping people.” When credit unions across the world lead with purpose, it makes a positive, lasting impact on the lives of their members, communities, and employees.
