Celebrate!<br />
The third Thursday in October is always an extraordinary day for credit<br />
unions world-wide. It’s International <strong>Credit</strong> <strong>Union</strong> Day — a day dedicated<br />
to honouring the cooperative spirit of credit unions and reflecting on the<br />
enormous contributions that credit unions and cooperatives make to our<br />
members and communities.<br />
Thanks for<br />
your voice!<br />
Now that we’re Canada’s first<br />
province-wide credit union, we<br />
want to make sure our community<br />
giving reflects the values of all<br />
our member-owners in Alberta.<br />
So, we asked you to tell us what<br />
is meaningful and relevant to<br />
you and your community. Over<br />
1,800 members completed our<br />
Community Investment survey in<br />
June and July and had a voice in<br />
shaping our community giving.<br />
We are now looking at what you<br />
told us and will have results and<br />
progress to share with you<br />
in the new year.<br />
Visit us this <strong>Credit</strong> <strong>Union</strong> Day, Thursday, October 15, and help us create<br />
a ripple of excitement as we bring the credit union spirit to people<br />
across Alberta.<br />
<strong>Servus</strong> Night at<br />
the Movies<br />
This summer, <strong>Servus</strong> teamed up with<br />
non-profit groups across Alberta to host<br />
unique and entertaining fundraising<br />
events. <strong>Servus</strong> Night at the Movies<br />
visited communities throughout<br />
Alberta to raise money for charitable<br />
organizations by featuring outdoor<br />
movies. Hundreds of people came<br />
out to enjoy a movie under the stars<br />
and gave donations to support a<br />
great cause. These are just some of<br />
the charities that benefited from the<br />
movie nights: Rowan House, Morinville<br />
Summer Camp, Central Alberta AIDS<br />
Network, Slave Lake Arena Fundraising<br />
Committee, Medicine Hat Food Bank,<br />
Lamont Family and Community<br />
Support Services, Alberta Diabetes<br />
Foundation and the Athabasca<br />
Regional Multiplex Society.<br />
