School Partners

Showing our commitment to the education community and the members we serve is an essential part of who we are. UECU has partnered with schools in the communities of our four branches to work together on projects and activities that will support the efforts of faculty and students. Each Spring, we celebrate Credit Union Youth Week in all partner schools to improve student's financial literacy skills. We recognize that financial literacy at a young age sets the ground work for financial savvy adults. School partners include: Eastview High School, Normandale Hills Elementary School, Woodbury Middle School and Sand Creek Elementary School (coming soon).
