SOUTH OGDEN, UT (December 28, 2022) — Goldenwest Credit Union has announced that their members will collectively earn more than $3.75 million with the 2022 year-end Bonus Dividend. The Credit Union’s Board of Directors approved the dividend during the November Board Meeting.

“The Bonus Dividend program is a key benefit of Goldenwest membership,” commented Dan Musgrave, Chairman of the Board. “We are grateful for our loyal members who make it possible to continue this 19-year tradition.”

“The year-end Bonus Dividend is an annual reminder of the value of participating in our not-for-profit financial cooperative,” stated Kerry Wahlen, President/CEO. “With the support of our volunteer Board, we are thrilled to make a positive impact on the financial well-being of our members with the Bonus Dividend.”
