News Congratulations CUFA
As many of you may already be aware the Credit Union Foundation of Australia (CUFA) does some great work encouraging sustainable corporate, economic, social and environmental practices within Australia.
CUFA also works in the Asia Pacific region to develop the financial and social well being of impoverished communities. Working with local governments in an attempt to improve living standards, CUFA delivers programs such as ‘Village Entrepreneur’ and ‘Development Education’.
As a result of credit unions embracing the work of CUFA, a record level of $325,711.95 was raised in the 2009/2010 financial year. This money will allow CUFA to reach more people in 2010/2011 as the organisation continues to:
- deliver programs that benefit the Australian credit union movement
- alleviate poverty in the Asia Pacific region.
From all of us here we would like to congratulate CUFA on the fine work they do and wish them all the best of luck for the coming year. It is nice to know that while we beaver away in our offices and branches there are people who, on our behalf, are helping to improve the lives of the less fortunate.
