SPECIAL EDITION: It's International Credit Union Day today. Here's three music videos to celebrate!
What do you get when you combine the talents of eight young credit union advocates from all over North America? An original rap, a wild Lady Gaga tribute and an epic Journey classic all created to promote all that’s good and right about credit unions.
What? We took six awesome credit union attributes and set them to music.
-
Membership is open to all
-
Members call the shots

-
Rates and fees should benefit members

-
Credit unions are just as accessible as banks
-
Financial education should be free and available to all
-
Giving back to the community is a priority
Who? Eight Young & Free Spokespeople came together to collaborate at our recent Spokester Summit in Indiana. Dex from Alberta, Janelle from Michigan, Jenn from St. Louis
, Kaylie from Ontario, Lee from Alabama, Matt from Indiana, Michelle from New Mexico
and Seth from Maine. Alex from Tennessee and Darryl from South Carolina weren't able to make the trip, but were with us in spirit!
