WASHINGTON — Citadel Federal Credit Union recently hosted its fourth successful fundraising event for Congressman Jim Gerlach (R-Pa.) in five years.
"We have been active for a very long time," Citadel Federal Credit Union Senior Vice President for Community and Governmental Affairs Carol Humenick said, adding that the board and management see political advocacy as one of the credit union's "corporate responsibilities."
She explained that the credit union has a separate government affairs business plan, sends representatives to the national credit union conventions in Washington, and meets with federal legislators within their districts as well as establishing relationships with the local politicians. "We're very much in tune to political activities that help our members," according to Humenick.
