HELP SHAPE THE FUTURE

Voting has opened to elect four (4) members to the FFCCU Board of Directors. The Board of Directors is essential to the credit union because they serve as the members’ voice and make important decisions on matters such as rates, promotions, policies, procedures, and guide the overall direction of the credit union. Each elected representative will serve a three-year volunteer term.

This year, the ballot has (4) four candidates. Several of the candidates on the ballot are incumbents, meaning they are currently serving on the board and running for re-election. It’s up to you to elect the individuals that you think will serve in the best interest of you and your fellow credit union members. You may vote for up to four (4) candidates.

Part of what separates credit unions from other types of financial institutions is that each member of a credit union is an equal shareholder of the not-for-profit financial cooperative. This means that every member has a say, regardless of how much money he/she has on deposit. At FFCCU, there is no select group of shareholders that profit more than anyone else.

Votes must be cast no later than March 2, 2026, at 4pm EST.
