Real Stories from Credit Unions

Real Stories from Credit Unions is a collection of from-the-heart stories of mission in action. With humor and drama, these true stories share the optimism, caring, and can-do triumph of ordinary people who make extraordinary dreams come true. These vibrant stories:

• Personalize the credit union mission
• Demonstrate the high-risk/high-reward equation
• Inspire the efforts of all those “making the difference”
• Validate the strategic aims of Project Differentiation

In the deepest sense, this book has as many “authors” as there are stories. People throughout the movement unfold the story of credit union empowerment, from eight-year-old Gianni, saving for college at his credit union since age two; to Walter, a high school graduate with his heart set on buying a home for his grandparents; to Ann Mary Bukenya, who borrowed from the midwives’ credit union to finance her Kyengera Maternity Home in Uganda.
