Maine Credit Union League

When asked who inspires her to bring her best self to work every day, Oxford Federal Credit Union President/CEO Joann Bisson shared, "My team inspires me to bring my best self to work every day. I work with highly talented, smart, and caring individuals who inspire me to challenge and improve myself. There is no way that I would let them down!" #WomensHistoryMonth

Maria Wooten, Maine Highlands FCU President/CEO, offered some inspiring advice for women looking to grow their careers in our industry. "Never stop learning! Ask questions and get involved wherever and whenever you can to broaden your knowledge and connections. Too often individuals refrain from asking questions because they are afraid of being judged or thought less of. But how else will you learn? I believe that asking questions shows your desire to learn and participate in a more meaningful way. We all bring something different to the table - don't underestimate what you have to offer." #WomensHistoryMonth

Just before accepting their Wegner Award on Monday evening, League President Elise Baldacci and League VP of Outreach Jen Burke, chatted with Mike Lawson about Maine Credit Unions' Campaign for Ending Hunger. Both shared how much this special effort means to the credit union movement in Maine. #endinghunger #WegnerAwards #collaboration https://lnkd.in/ew4_NPun

To have Maine Credit Unions' Campaign for Ending Hunger recognized as a 2025 Herb Wegner Memorial Award recipient by the National Credit Union Foundation is a remarkable honor our League is extremely grateful for. This special video truly captures the essence of the Campaign's mission, as well as all those who uplift the Campaign to in turn support hungry neighbors in their communities. #EndingHunger #PeopleHelpingPeople https://lnkd.in/eCuWTP5X

We are on the Hill at the historic Monocle Restaurant meeting with our entire delegation to advocate for credit unions. We appreciate their strong support of our movement. #advocacy #GAC2025

Our team was deeply honored to accept the Herb Wegner Memorial Award tonight on behalf of Maine Credit Unions' Campaign for Ending Hunger. People Helping People is at the heart of everything we do and we are very appreciative of this special recognition.

It was an honor to have father and son, John and Chris Doe, carry Maine's flag into this morning's GAC ceremony. John proudly serves on the Board of Eastmill Federal Credit Union and is the Chairman of the League and Synergent's Board of Directors. Chris serves on the Board at Evergreen Credit Union. This was a special moment and a perfect way to kick off an exciting few days! #GAC #advocacy

In Maine, we’re proud to celebrate a remarkable statistic: 41% of Maine's credit unions are led by female CEOs. Throughout Women's History Month, our League will be profiling some of the outstanding women leading Maine's credit union movement. #WomensHistoryMonth

Our League is thrilled to join our credit union colleagues at the 2025 Governmental Affairs Conference (GAC). Credit union advocacy is a cornerstone of our work and we are excited to make our voices heard in Washington, DC. #advocacy #GAC2025

Spring break is on the minds of many! Our League spoke to WMTW's Total Money team yesterday and offered some tips for finding a vacation deal that won't break the bank. #TotalMoney https://lnkd.in/eH5hJp4e
