Who We Are

Credit Union Miracle Day, Inc. is a 501c3 organization founded in 2001 as a consortium of credit unions with a common goal of showcasing the difference CUs make in their communities through the support of Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals.

Our MisSion
We’re dedicated to changing lives in our communities by fundraising for Children’s Miracle Network hospitals, educating the public on the benefits of credit unions, and illustrating the credit union difference for CUs everywhere on Capitol Hill.
