Credit unions remain a safe place for members to keep their savings and other accounts, despite economic troubles, including the recent IndyMac bank failure. However, in a national voter survey, only 37% of voters were aware that credit unions are insured. We hope that you will help us spread the word to credit unions that this is a prime opportunity to inform their membership about the safety and value of credit unions. To help in this effort, we offer the following resources:
