About CUBFI #GivingTuesday
Dear friends,
Here at the League's Foundation, we are working harder than
ever to lift CT residents and communities while raising awareness to credit
unions throughout the state. As a way of helping people navigate the
pandemic financially, Credit Unions Building Financial Independence underwrote
the cost to send more than 40 credit union employees from 18 different credit
unions through CUNA’s financial counseling program (FiCEP).
We were able to do this at no cost to CTs Credit Unions,
but we can’t reach our goal of having one certified credit union financial
counselor at every affiliated credit union in Connecticut without your financial
support.
Every dollar you donate to the League’s Foundation gets
reinvested back into Connecticut’s credit unions through programs like FiCEP,
CDFI assistance, or our small credit union fund.
Your gift also supports our financial education efforts and
financial reality fairs, which have provided financial education to more than
35,000 CT high school students—2,500 served virtually since the pandemic.
We are excited for what 2022 will bring and are grateful for
those who supported us in #GivingTuesday last year and made donations in the
current year.
Please consider a direct donation to the foundation as part
of your year-end giving. You can make a donation here or find us on our Venmo handle @CUBFI. Together, we can make financial well-being for all a reality.
