“At Compass Federal Credit Union, and all credit unions, the member comes first,” said Compass Federal Credit Union CEO, Jennifer Rupert.  “The member owns a piece of our credit union; this is why we work hard every day to help our membership find the tools and resources they need to help them reach their goals.  International Credit Union (ICU) Day® helps to bring us all together and celebrate the great history of the credit union movement.”

On Thursday, October 17, International Credit Union (ICU) Day® celebrates the spirit of the global credit union movement. The day is recognized to reflect upon the credit union movement's history, promote its achievements, recognize hard work and share member experiences. International Credit Union (ICU) Day® has been celebrated on the third Thursday of October since 1948.

The ultimate goal is to raise awareness about the tremendous work that credit unions and other financial cooperatives are doing around the world and give members the opportunity to get more engaged. The day of festivities for credit unions and financial cooperatives globally includes fundraisers, open houses, contests, picnics, volunteering and parades.
