Credit unions across the industry are gearing up to celebrate #ILoveMyCreditUnion Day, taking place again this year on July 26! We hope your credit union will participate in this annual social media movement created to highlight the many great aspects of being a credit union member, generating conversations about why we all love our credit unions so much. Your credit union has a special chance to win, too!
The Illinois Credit Union League (ICUL), who hosts the #ILoveMyCreditUnion social media blitz, wants to hear how your credit union plans to celebrate #ILoveMyCreditUnion Day. There are two simple steps to enter your credit union into the drawing for an exclusive #ILoveMyCreditUnion Day swag kit to help your staff honor the day in an even bigger way!
First, develop a strong internal engagement plan to encourage your staff to participate in the social media event on July 26. Then, complete the form on the #ILoveMyCreditUnion website to share your plan with the ICUL team in charge of this initiative. If your credit union wins, you will be sent your prize ahead of July 26 so you can use the swag during your celebrations—but act fast! The submission deadline is July 1.
In case you missed it or are looking for a refresher, the ICUL hosted a webinar on May 16 discussing the campaign and all of the tools on their website ready for your credit union to utilize. The recording is available if you’d like to get ideas flowing. Additionally, ilovemycreditunion.social links right to an abundance of resources if you’d rather dig in and get started there. They have created social media assets for X, Instagram, Facebook, and LinkedIn, as well as messaging templates, printable promos, incentive ideas, design tools, a marketing plan, and much more—including resources in other languages.
If your credit union has any questions about #ILoveMyCreditUnion Day or would like to brainstorm ideas on how you can get involved, please contact Lauren McCallum.
