October 19 is International Credit Union Day, when credit unions remind their members that they can achieve their biggest goals in life with the theme "Dreams Thrive Here." CUNA and the World Council of Credit Unions announced the theme for the 2017 event. “Credit unions improve the financial lives of their members every day of the year,” said CUNA President/CEO Jim Nussle. “International Credit Union Day is an opportunity to celebrate the credit union difference with our members and remind the world that credit unions are the best financial choice for consumers.” ICU Day—celebrated on the third Thursday of every October since 1948—is the one day every year the worldwide movement bands together to celebrate the spirit and philosophy of credit unions. (Credit Union National Association (CUNA) The ultimate goal is to raise awareness about the great work that credit unions are doing around the world and give members the opportunity to get more engaged. The 2017 International Credit Union (ICU) Day® theme — "Dreams Thrive Here" illustrates how credit union and other financial cooperatives serve as catalysts to make different professions, personal choices and career paths real. (World Council of Credit Unions (WOCCU) Join the 235 million members worldwide who are celebrating International Credit Union Day today and 160 years of credit unions putting the dreams of people before profit.
