Ferndale, Michigan – Recently Credit Union ONE had the opportunity to host the African-American Credit Union Coalition (AACUC) for a tour of their headquarters and a presentation of the history of the credit union in conjunction with the Coalition’s 15^th Annual Conference held in Detroit.

The conference is held in a different part of the country each year and a credit union is selected for a site visit by the AACUC.  Credit Union ONE was proud to be chosen from the Detroit area this year.

“I would like to thank Gary Moody, President/CEO for giving AACUC members the opportunity to tour Credit Union ONE, said Sheilah Montgomery, AACUC Chairwoman.  Visiting the various departments and learning about the innovative and state-of-the-art operations at Credit Union ONE was inspiring.   The employees were absolutely outstanding.  Their enthusiasm and pride in providing outstanding service to the members is what credit unions are all about.  Kudos to Management and Staff!” 

In support of the AACUC and the work that they do to increase the strength of the global credit union movement, Credit Union ONE also sponsored one of the keynote speakers for the conference this year.

“It was a great honor to be selected for the group tour, said Gary Moody, Credit Union ONE President and CEO.   I thoroughly enjoyed the spirit of sharing and cooperation felt by everyone that attended.   Meetings like this prove the strength and vitality of credit unions, and reaffirm the movement’s commitment to serving all consumers everywhere.”
