Credit Unions celebrate 90 years of continued service
SUMMARY: First Mississippi Federal Credit Union is celebrating a milestone by putting people first. As part of the national credit union movement, which began 90 years ago and is described as “people helping people,” they have served Lauderdale and Clark counties for over 50 years. Jerome Tryan shared insights into the credit union's mission, emphasizing that unlike banks, credit unions are not-for-profit entities. This allows them to pay members dividends through loans and other financial services, instead of paying shareholders. Today, over 140 million Americans benefit from being part of these independent financial cooperatives. Congratulations to their continued service!
The Credit Union has served Lauderdale and Clarke Counties for over 50 years and continues caring for its members daily.
