Volunteering enriches our society, brings communities together, and helps keep many Maine businesses and organizations afloat. Each year, credit union employees and volunteers contribute thousands of hours to support numerous causes and organizations. Tracking those hours is important and easy thanks to CU Shares for ME.
The CUs Share for ME program helps the League quantify the volunteer efforts of our credit unions. The program also makes it easier for the League to share stories about the great work credit unions are contributing to in communities across the state with the media, elected officials, and other stakeholders. In addition, Jake Holmes, the League’s Financial Literacy Outreach Coordinator, utilizes submitted tracking forms to obtain the latest financial education figures.
“I report our credit unions’ financial literacy figures to the National Youth Involvement Board,” said Holmes. “Submitting those numbers tells the whole story of our efforts, which helps leverage our tax exempt status. The CUs Share for ME program is a significant aid in ensuring that all the hard work doesn’t go unnoticed. That’s why I strongly encourage everyone to submit the form monthly.”
You can complete your monthly report through a form on the League’s website. Forms should be submitted by the 10th of each month, which means September’s deadline is just around the corner!
