SeaComm Joins Credit Unions Around the World in Celebration
October 16, 2025
October 16th is International Credit Union Day. The theme this year is Cooperation for a Prosperous
World. This one day affords us an opportunity to be thankful to our movement and a celebration of the
unique differences and impacts SeaComm and other financial cooperatives have made and continues to
make for our members and the communities in which we do business.
All credit unions share a common goal to offer access to affordable financial services to their members
and provide even the most financially disadvantaged, the tools and the opportunities to be financially
self-sufficient. Making life choices and dreams a reality is the credit union difference that makes a real
impact in our world.
Exceptional member service and democratic control are just some of the many benefits of being a credit
union or cooperative member. That's as true at SeaComm as it is in other cooperatively-owned financial
institutions from Brazil to Zimbabwe. Credit unions and other financial cooperatives are founded on
community service, a principle that has set them apart for more than 163 years. At SeaComm, it all
started with a tool box (which is iconic for us today and can be seen in the lobbies of all our branches),
$50 and a shared vision of then ten Chevrolet Foundry workers, who each wanted to improve the
financial lives of not only themselves, but those they worked with. That vision is no less important today
than it was back on June 6, 1963.
On behalf of the Board of Directors, management and our entire staff, we join more than 400 million
members around the world in this celebration and look forward to carrying on this rich history of
improving the financial lives of our members and continuing the journey that was started by those ten
men of People Helping People attain their dreams.
Happy International Credit Union Day!
