SR-85, As Adopted by Senate, October 13, 2009
Senators Sanborn, Kuipers, Pappageorge, Anderson, Hunter, Van Woerkom, Hardiman and Jansen offered the following resolution:
Senate Resolution No. 85.
A resolution recognizing October 11-17, 2009, as Credit Union Week and honoring all Michigan credit unions.
Whereas, Credit unions have been organized in Michigan since 1934, and they have a proud tradition of innovation and leadership among the nation’s credit unions. The Michigan credit union movement is one of growth, progress, and success; and
Whereas, Michigan credit unions are rooted in the communities in which they serve, whether supporting local charities, offering financial education seminars, or operating student-run credit union branches in schools. They do this voluntarily because as not-for-profit, member-owned, financial cooperatives, credit unions recognize that social responsibility is an integral part of their mission; and
Whereas, Michigan credit unions continue to improve the financial literacy of their members and the community, following the credit union philosophy of "people helping people"; and
Whereas, Michigan credit unions remain informed through the assistance of the Michigan Credit Union League, which has focused exclusively on serving its members throughout its history--a commitment that is concisely expressed in its mission statement: "To foster, protect and promote the vitality of credit unions by providing programs and services that will enhance their ability to enrich the lives of their members"; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the Senate, That we hereby honor Michigan credit unions as they celebrate Credit Union Week, October 11-17, 2009.
