Member Advocacy
Credit union advocacy allows our voices to resonate in the communities we serve. Fill out the quick form below to join our member advocacy group today.
Why is advocacy important?
When we advocate, we help others understand the difference between credit unions and for-profit financial institutions. This protects our tax status, so we can continue to serve our members.
The credit union philosophy is people helping people. Mountain America’s not-for-profit, member-owned model ensures that earnings benefit our members through:
- Fewer and lower fees
- Lower loan interest rates
- Competitive savings rates
- Convenient branch locations
- Innovative digital banking technology

MEMBER ADVOCACY
Mountain America is not only a credit union, it's part of the community. And giving to the community makes, to me, the heart.
