Everything is bigger in Texas, or so the saying goes, and that includes the charitable spirit of its credit unions. Scratch a Texas credit union and you'll likely find a fiercely independent institution with an equally fierce devotion to its members and community, and the financial commitment to support it.
Charitable giving is part and parcel for many credit unions, including those in Texas, according to Dick Ensweiler, president/CEO of the Cornerstone Credit Union League, which serves credit unions in Arkansas and Oklahoma as well as the Lone Star State.
"The seventh cooperative principle for credit unions is concern for community," Ensweiler said. "It's an attribute that credit unions, as cooperatives, take seriously in meeting both members' financial needs and strengthening the communities they serve. We are proud of what all credit unions do across the Cornerstone region to support and strengthen our various communities."
