International Credit Union (ICU) Day® celebrates the spirit of the global credit union movement. The day is recognized to reflect upon the credit union movement’s history, promote its achievements, recognize hard work and share member experiences. International Credit Union (ICU) Day® has been celebrated on the third Thursday of October since 1948.
The ultimate goal is to raise awareness about the tremendous work that credit unions and other financial cooperatives are doing around the world and give members the opportunity to get more engaged. The day of festivities for credit unions and financial cooperatives globally includes fundraisers, open houses, contests, picnics, volunteering and parades.
On October 21, 2021, our global credit union family will join together to celebrate the 73rd anniversary of ICU Day®!
This year’s theme is “Building financial health for a brighter tomorrow.”
To expand on that vision, World Council is hosting a virtual event on October 21 that will feature presentations on financial health and all the complexities associated with that term for credit unions
International Credit Union Day is brought to you by World Council and Credit Union National Association (CUNA). This year’s event is proudly supported by Harland Clarke.
