Credit Unions for Kids is looking for a few good grownups to join its national advisory panel – the Young Leaders for Kids Board.

CU4Kids is the brand under which credit unions raise funds for the 170 members nationwide of the Children's Miracle Network Hospitals. Its YL4Kids board was created in 2010 to provide an opportunity for credit union leaders 40 and under to help with the effort.

“The purpose of YL4Kids is to create, grow and inspire Credit Unions for Kids enthusiasts among the next generation of credit union leaders,” Credit Union for Kids said in its announcement.

 “Over the past two and a half years, the Young Leaders for Kids Board has been instrumental in the success of our CU4Kids program nationwide,” said Joe Dearborn, senior director of corporate partnerships for Children's Miracle Network Hospitals in Salt Lake City.

“The team's efforts helped us engage thousands of credit unions and reach new fundraising heights in 2012. They are working on some new, exciting fundraising ideas, and I look forward to seeing their impact in 2013,” Dearborn said.

Applications for the Young Leaders for Kids Board are due by Feb. 1 and available online.
