President/CEO Report

We all know that credit unions are different. That’s why we’re here today. As members, you are equal owners, and we are accountable to you. Thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to be here and take an active role in your credit union.

WFCU is committed to enhancing products and services that will bring you convenience and provide the exceptional member experience you deserve.

We're also aware of the risks of technology and continue to take steps to safeguard your assets, data, and privacy.

We diligently monitor issues and trends and how they may affect our members.

For example, we supported efforts to defeat the recent Credit Card Competition Act, and together with members of our Board, participate in many Governmental Affairs events as the voice of our members.

Our team serves others through the inspireICT volunteer initiative and invested over $27,000 back into our community through volunteering, donations, and sponsorships in 2023.

We continue to support financial education in Sedgwick County High Schools by sponsoring 100% of the Banzai Financial Education Program, with over 4,000 students completing the program to date. Additionally, we offer Banzai Financial Education for free on our website. The Dana Winkler Scholarship program has invested over $143,000 in 159 local students since 2004.

I’m delighted to report that in 2024 we’ll offer a new online banking platform, a new mobile app, our new WFCU On the Go app with Video Banking, financial education events, and more. Stay connected with your emailed newsletter, our website, and social media, where new products and services are shared as they become available.

As the financial landscape continues to shift, we are committed to providing the best possible service to our members and support to our community. On behalf of the Board of Directors and Staff, thank you for being a member of our credit union.
