Who owns your credit union? You do! As not-for-profit, democratically controlled, member-owned cooperatives, credit unions exist to serve their members. This year's International Credit Union Day (ICU Day) theme, It Belongs to Me, celebrates the economic democracy and equal ownership rights of each credit union member. At credit unions throughout the world, every customer is both a member AND an owner. Learn more by reading the news release announcing this year's theme.

The excitement of ICU Day arrives on the same Thursday every October, when credit unions around the world join together to celebrate the spirit of the credit union movement. It is a day to honor those who have dedicated their lives to the movement, to recognize the hard work of credit union staff and volunteers today and to show appreciation to our members.
