The League of Credit Unions & Affiliates is excited to announce the creation of the Office of Small Credit Unions, a dedicated resource hub designed to empower and support credit unions with assets of $150 million and under. This tailored initiative underscores The League’s commitment to fostering growth and sustainability for small credit unions, ensuring they have the resources they need to serve their communities effectively.
Leading this initiative is Susan Lee, a seasoned industry expert with over 15 years of experience, including three years as a credit union CEO. Susan’s extensive background with financial institutions and dedication to small credit unions make her the ideal leader for this initiative.
“Small credit unions are the backbone of their communities, providing personalized financial services and fostering local economic growth,” said Samantha Beeler, President of The League of Credit Unions & Affiliates. “With the launch of the Office of Small Credit Unions, we are taking a significant step forward in ensuring these institutions have the tools and support they need to be a reliable resource within their communities.”
The Office of Small Credit Unions offers a variety of resources tailored to meet the unique needs of small credit unions, including:
- Online Trainings: Comprehensive educational opportunities to strengthen teams.
- One-on-One Consultations: Tailored guidance to address specific challenges.
- Online Community: A platform for collaboration and idea-sharing among peers.
- Connection Opportunities: Events throughout the year for networking and knowledge exchange with leaders from similarly sized credit unions.
“I’ve seen firsthand the incredible impact small credit unions have on their members and communities,” shared Susan Lee, League Consultant and head of the Office of Small Credit Unions. “Our goal is to provide opportunities for small credit unions, who otherwise wouldn’t have the solutions needed to promote growth and sustainability.”
The League’s commitment to supporting small credit unions reflects its belief that the success of every credit union matters. By addressing the unique challenges faced by smaller institutions, the Office of Small Credit Unions is paving the way for a stronger, more resilient credit union community.
