2021 CUNA Diamond Awards – Apply Now!


The most prestigious annual credit union industry competition, the CUNA Marketing & Business Development Diamond Awards, is now accepting submissions. These awards recognize creative excellence and outstanding results in credit union marketing. With 35 categories that you can enter, this is your time to show off the amazing work your credit union accomplished in 2020.

Considering the events that have taken place this year, a new category has been introduced to the Diamond Awards: Crisis Management. Submissions for this category include marketing efforts to present awareness and response for crisis management. This includes samples of response plans, business continuity efforts, and member support resources.

The cost for entering a submission to the Crisis Management category is only $50 and 100% of the proceeds will be donated to either Family Promise, Feeding America, or The Salvation Army. Credit unions can even select which organization they would like their entry fee to benefit.

It’s never too early to start entering your submissions. Now is the perfect time to take advantage of the Early Bird Deadline pricing, which runs through December 21, 2020.  Don’t wait until the last minute. Submit your entries early and often.
