"1 with The League"

The “1 with The League” campaign is a multi-year public relations and advocacy effort coordinated by The Wisconsin Credit Union League.

As part of the campaign, The League trains credit union supporters – including credit union staff, volunteers and members – as credit union Activists. 

Activists engage their credit unions in the PLAN – the Political and Legislative Action Network. Though not a contract, the PLAN is a suggested list of action steps by which Activists can support advocacy efforts. The PLAN lays out what we need to accomplish as a movement; Activists choose their activity and level of involvement.

Statewide, Activists collaborate with The League to represent the interests of the more than two million Wisconsin consumers who want to retain the right to belong to a not-for-profit, member-owned financial institution that returns earnings to members.

By telling the credit union story proactively – through personal networking, media relations, community education, advertising and other means – the “1 with The League” campaign increases appreciation for the “Credit Union Difference". The aim is to cultivate pro-credit union relationships with lawmakers, community leaders, media and others so that credit unions can:

• Grow their memberships
• Pass legislation benefiting credit unions and their 2 million members in Wisconsin
• Shape public policy issues in Wisconsin affecting financial services
• Remain a strong, valuable consumer choice in the financial marketplace
