New sponsorship and ticket levels are being offered for the 26th annual National Credit Union Foundation dinner on Feb. 24 during the GAC in Washington, D.C.

Denise Gabel, chief operating officer with the Northwest Credit Union Association, will return as emcee for the evening, which will include the Herb Wegner Memorial Awards.

“I've joked that this is the credit union system's version of the Oscars, but the foundation dinner and accompanying awards presentations are truly inspiring and energizing,” said NCUF Executive Director Gigi Hyland.

This year's honorees are:

  • Lifetime Achievement: Gary Oakland, retired president/CEO of BECU;
  • Lifetime Achievement: Jim McCormack, president/CEO of the Pennsylvania Credit Union Association;
  • Lifetime Achievement: Tim Haegelin, retired president/CEO  of Generations Federal Credit Union in San Antonio, Texas; and
