WASHINGTON — The National Credit Union Foundation will award its Wegner awards for 2009 to three pioneering credit union leaders. The NCUF makes the awards at a dinner tied to CUNA's Governmental Affairs Conference.

Rita Haynes, the CEO of Faith Community Credit Union, a privately insured, community development credit union headquartered in Cleveland, and Tom Sargent, CEO of the $1.8 billion First Technology Credit Union in Beaverton, Ore., will share the award for individual achievement.

The lifetime achievement award will be given to the late William Charles Sterner, CEO of Elevations Credit Union of Boulder, Colo., who died earlier this year of a heart attack while attending a credit union legislative forum.
