More than 150 members shared their experiences with Resource One Credit Union to mark the Dallas's cooperative's 75th birthday.
The $328 million credit union wrapped up its birthday month in July with several celebrations including a "75 is the new 25" vehicle loan promotion that offered .25% off all vehicle loans. All loans were also entered into a contest for a $7,500 cash award.
Through the vehicle loan promotion, the 40,000-member CU said it experienced an 18% increase in loan volume and booked $9.38 million in gross loans. Four of Resource CU's nine branches broke their loan records both in volume and in dollars booked, according to Mike Roark, chief lending officer.
