Clearer. Smarter. Brighter. Better. A Letter from David O. Brock, President/CEO As we enter into another new year, I would like to thank you for your membership in CCU and the trust you have placed in us to provide your financial services. As is typical at this time of year, I was reflecting a bit, and my mind turned to my experiences as a part of the credit union movement. As I look back over the credit unions that I have worked in and the positions I have held, what jumps out at me is the consistancy of purpose.
Credit unions are more than just providers of financial services. They are cooperatives that faithfully serve their members and the communities in which they are located, even as economic conditions and member needs change. We have stayed true to our purpose with the Brevard community for 64 years. Our purpose has never changed: Create value for both our members and our community. But while we are very capable money
managers, it’s not about the money. It’s about helping you succeed. We are a cooperative, owned jointly and equally by the members who use the services. This cooperative structure, and your equal voice in voting for the volunteer Board that represents you, should give you confidence that when you discuss your financial needs with one of our employees, the recommendations you receive are intended to be in your best interest. We are not here to maximize the income we can make from you. Rather, we are here to meet you where you are right now and help you to achieve a healthy outcome. At CCU, we believe that helping you achieve financial health also means reaching out to help educate and empower the community as a whole. Over the years, CCU has supported financial education for youth and adults. We provide free financial counseling and education for our members. We support groups and events that strive to ensure that all our neighbors are fed, educated, and healthy. This includes groups that help students who are facing tremendous challenges to stay in school, and even go on to college.
I think of what we create as a “virtuous cycle.” You participate in the credit union by using the products and services, and the cycle moves within the community in the form of more money retained in member households, affordable credit that benefits buyers and the local businesses that sell to them, and support of local charitable organizations. If this sounds like something straight out of It’s A Wonderful Life, that’s because it is. The credit union doesn’t store up money; it facilitates the movement of money throughout the community under a not-for-profit cooperative structure. I hope you will allow us to increase our service to you in 2017. If you have loans and accounts at other financial institutions, please give us a call or visit a branch so we can look for opportunities to help you save money on loans and credit cards, earn more on deposits, and pay fewer fees for checking. The more you allow us to do for you, the greater the benefit we can provide for you and others. I wish you a happy, healthy, and prosperous 2017.
David O. Brock, President/CEO
The 2017 Annual Meeting of the Members will be held on Thursday, March 16, 2017 at 7 p.m. at the Rockledge Branch.
MARK YOUR CALENDAR
One of the items of business is the election to fill the open positions on the Board of Directors. We have two seats expiring (seat #3 and seat #5). The Nominating Committee, made up of three members (1 Board Director and 2 non-Board members) has nominated Linda Dale, a current volunteer, to continue serving in Seat #3 and Dot Everhart, a current volunteer, to continue serving in Seat #5. Both nominees having been serving on the CCU Board of Directors and several CCU Committees with many years of experience.
Additional nominations for these open positions may be made by petition signed by at least one percent (1%) of the current credit union membership and a completed volunteer application must be filed. Service on the Board or Committee requires you to be a primary member. In order to be validated, the petitions and volunteer application must be submitted to Tina Webster, Executive Secretary of CCU, by close of business Wednesday, February 1, 2017. Petitions submitted after this date will not be accepted. Elections will not be conducted by ballot, and nominations from the floor will not be taken when there is only one nominee for each open position. Please plan to attend the 2017 Annual Meeting and help us to celebrate 64 years of service. There will be refreshments and prize giveaways. All members are welcome to attend!
CCU will mail 2016 tax forms (1099, etc) to all members and they will be available within eBranch Online Banking starting in January, 2017. Watch for announcements on ccuFlorida.org and within the eBranch.
