In-district advocacy shines a light on the credit union difference

Credit unions do important work in the lives of their members, in their communities, and beyond, and the August recess provides an opportunity to share that impact at home and in person with members of Congress.   

Providing stories of the credit union difference shows lawmakers how credit unions are helping their constituents. Riverways Federal Credit Union CEO Scott Shults shares how serving underserved communities is a natural fit and leads to organic growth for the communities their credit union serves.
