The Credit Union National Association (CUNA) recognized Financial Center First Credit Union for two national awards, selected among the winning entries at a league level within the $250 million - $1 billion asset category.

The awards received are as follows:

2019 marks the fifth year that Financial Center received the Desjardins Adult Financial Education Award. 5,700 individuals annually have been impacted as a result of Financial Center’s overarching adult financial literacy program, including facets such as 1:1 financial counseling, online learning, outreach to not-for-profits, churches, businesses, and immigrants.

Additionally, CUNA presented the Louise Herring Award to Financial Center for its efforts and formal partnership with the Consul de Mexico, enabling the credit union to host weekly seminars for immigrants to receive financial documentation.

Jim Nussle, President and CEO of CUNA, stated: “Congratulations to the 2018 CUNA Award winners who provide exceptional member service and exude the credit union philosophy to help better people’s lives. We are proud to honor the recipients for their commitment to their communities.”
