Chapter News

Chapter recognized
The Illinois Quad Cities Chapter of Credit Unions was recently highlighted in the Rock Island Argus for their "Plastic Bag Project." Shocked by information she received in an email about the damage that plastic bags can do to the environment, Sheryl VanHoutte, Chapter iBelong Representative enlisted the support of Ray Rogers, Chapter Chairman. After conducting further research VanHoutte and Rogers brought all of this data to the attention of the credit unions in the chapter, just in time for when it was seeking a community service project. It seeks to discontinue usage of plastic bags through a number of ways, including legislation. For the full story, please click here.
