Municipal Credit Union (MCU) held its 2024 annual membership meeting on March 20. MCU’s prior-year audited financials and 2023 annual report were presented to the membership and, pursuant to MCU’s bylaws, Meisha Porter, Joseph Garba, Terryl Brown and Jahmila Edwards were elected to the Board; Porter and Garba for three-year terms, and Brown and Edwards for two-year terms.

”The Board of Directors is tasked with overseeing the strategy and direction of the credit union so that it remains financially strong, complies with all applicable laws and regulations, and is well prepared both financially and operationally to serve its members both today and in the future,” stated Tom Canty, Chair of the MCU Board. “Our members continue to invest in the credit union, so we are well capitalized and our loan portfolio and our cash on hand are both increasing. We are reinvesting our net income into the operations of the credit union to make sure it is strong, resilient, and ready for the future. I thank my fellow Board members and our Supervisory Committee for their dedication to the members of Municipal Credit Union.”
