For Women’s History Month, The Wisconsin Credit Union League (The League) — a trade association representing the interests of 118 credit unions across the state — is celebrating the strong representation of women leaders in The Credit Union Movement both in Wisconsin and nationwide.

The Minnesota Credit Union Network, Montana’s Credit Unions, and The Wisconsin Credit Union League have partnered to offer TriState Products & Services. The three states are working together to form strategic endorsement relationships with partners to help their credit unions best serve their members.

​Whether freezing cold or unseasonably warm, Wisconsinites had some winter fun February 12-20 when a total of 68 participants representing 22 credit unions and system partners raised a record $13,500 for The Wisconsin Credit Union Foundation!

Since saving money remains a popular New Year's resolution, The League decided to kick off the year by sharing savings tips combined with the Savers Sweepstakes® program throughout the month of January in a paid social media campaign on Facebook. This campaign reached 75,000 Wisconsinites of all ages and directed individuals to open up a Savers account at a participating credit union in their area.

According to The Federal Reserve's annual Survey of Household Economics & Decision-Making, nearly half of Americans have difficulty or are unable to cover a $400 emergency expense. This startling statistic spurred The Wisconsin Credit Union League to take action, and, in 2018, Saver's Sweepstakes was launched.
