Being a cooperative is as much a way of being as a state of mind. It’s an environment that fosters teamwork and collaboration as well as a commitment to self. You are an owner of your credit union. You have a direct say on which direction your credit union is taking. How do you pay your customer-owners, drive for great prices, and take the lead?

Credit unions have a chance to win $1500 by answering these questions as part of cooperative CUSO CU*Answers’ 10th annual video contest. The deadline for best video idea and best 30-second spot idea recently concluded—entries were to be submitted by February 6th. Credit unions will have until May 2nd to submit their entries for the best complete video.

Winners for all three contests will be announced and unveiled at CU*Answers’ 2017 Leadership Conference held in June. “The video contest series give our credit unions an opportunity to do something fun, earn some cash, and be involved in the cooperative process,” said EVP Scott Page. “We’re looking forward to unveiling the winning entries at Leadership Conference and sharing our network’s vision for a better way forward.”
