Community Involvement

In keeping with the credit union philosophy of "people helping people," the Arkansas Credit Union League strives to encourage credit unions to give back to the communities to which they belong. Community Involvement can be defined in many ways, each with its own distinct characteristics, contribution guidelines, and volunteer participation requirements. Some can be accomplished simply with volunteer participation, while others can be accomplished by making monetary contributions or lending intellectual resources.

From taking leadership positions in programs and services for their members, to volunteering in statewide programs and providing financial education to kids and young adults in their membership and communities Credit Unions throughout Arkansas are active and involved in numerous projects and programs.

We want to know the great works Arkansas Credit Unions are doing.
