Credit Union Awards
On January 1, 2024 CUNA and NAFCU merged to create America’s Credit Unions.
As part of this transformative journey, America’s Credit Unions has decided to suspend what was previously referred to as the CUNA Awards Program. This hiatus will allow them to carefully evaluate the best way to acknowledge the exceptional contributions of our industry, aligning with the vision, mission, and purpose of their new organization.
Since our state level awards are closely connected to the national level awards program, the New York Credit Union Association will also be suspending the New York Credit Union Recognition Awards program. We look forward to taking this time to assess our state level program and are excited to see the refreshed program from America’s Credit Unions.
