We are excited to present and recognize the CU Times LUMINARIES Class of 2023 credit union finalists that have laid out examples of how to be good stewards of the industry while making an impactful and positive change to the communities they serve.

This slideshow highlights the 10 finalists from our Community Impact – Credit Union category. We received so many entries for this category that we had to divide it geographically into "north" and "south" depending on the headquarters location of the credit union.

This category are those credit unions located in the "south" quadrant of the U.S. and represent all sizes of financial cooperatives that are strategically focused on community efforts.

The LUMINARIES Class of 2023 Finalists are currently being reviewed by an incredible and diverse judging panel of experts from across the credit union landscape.

A select group of winners will be announced live on stage during our awards dinner and gala, which is scheduled for Nov. 9, 2023 at the Disney's Yacht Club Resort in Orlando, Fla.
