American Income Life (AIL) has been helping the credit union movement for nearly 70-years and is strongly committed to serving Firefighter Credit Unions

 

     

  I would like to introduce and recommend American Income Life (AIL). The National Council of Firefighter Credit Unions (NCOFCU) created a partnership with AIL almost a decade ago. Our council has continued its partnership in an effort to further support our participating credit unions and also provide additional resources to further our collective goals.

     AIL has been helping the credit union movement for nearly 70-years and is strongly committed to serving Firefighter Credit Unions by adding value to a credit union's menu of benefits, increasing non-interest income, and also generating further interest-bearing products, all while building your credit union's core membership, and most importantly, all at no cost.

     While some of our NCOFCU members have been working with AIL for many years, we would like to encourage those that are not to review further how AIL can help your credit union grow, obtain additional unearned income, and further service your members. I have asked Travis ​ Daniels, the Public Relations/Marketing Representative from AIL, to contact you to discuss their benefits program further.

     Thank you for your continued dedication to the members you serve and appreciate your continued support for NCOFCU. Our strong desire is to continue finding programs, benefits, and solutions that will aid our mutual goals. NCOFCU holds true to its mission, "To provide its members with the knowledge, skills, tools, and resources necessary to ensure ongoing professional development, and the ability to deliver exceptional value to their organizations."

In support of AIL,
Grant Sheehan CEO

World's Happiest Country

  World's Happiest Country   Finland was named the world’s happiest country for the ninth consecutive year, the latest World Happiness Report revealed. Nordic countries—including Denmark, Iceland, Norway, and Sweden—also ranked in the top 10.  Analysts attribute Finland’s joy factor to its wealth, social safety network, and high life expectancy, among factors.

James Hunter, Executive Director of Credit Union Development for New Orleans Firemen’s CU, knows too well how expensive it is to be poor.

  NEW ORLEANS FIREMEN’S FCU 􀀁 METAIRIE, L   A passion for empowerment James Hunter knows too well how expensive it is to be poor. It’s what he sees every day as mortgage director and executive director of credit union development for $182 million asset New Orleans Firemen’s Federal Credit Union, Metairie, La., and executive director of The Faith Fund, a nonprofit partnership that seeks to provide a financial hand-up to the undeserved. It’s what inspires him to come to work every day and drives his passion of empowering people and setting them on the path to financial security. “Too many people are too far away from the starting line,” Hunter says. “Payday loans are a big business in Louisiana. Exorbitant fees and interest from payday loans drain more than a quarter of a billion dollars a year. Baton Rouge supports one of the top three pay-day loan markets in the U.S.” The Faith Fund was formed to counteract that. It’s a unique cooperative relationship between like-minded busi...

Boston Firefighters Credit Union can open membership to police officers

  By Deirdre Fernandes Globe Staff  February 12, 2015 The Boston Firefighters Credit Union will be able to open its membership to the city’s police officers and other law enforcement officials, a Suffolk County Superior Court judge ruled Thursday. Judge Mitchell Kaplan rebuffed an attempt by the City of Boston Credit Union to stop the firefighters credit union from expanding its membership and taking away some of its most lucrative customers: police officers, who are among the highest-paid city employees. The turf battle between the two financial institutions grew unusually emotional as they accused each other of distorting facts and invoking the events surrounding the Boston Marathon bombing to promote their cause. David Cotney, the state’s commissioner of banks, had approved the firefighters’ expansion plans in November. But the city’s credit union filed a court injunction to stop it. In his decision dismissing the case, Judge Kaplan said the commissioner’s decision ...

Celebrating 40 Years Of Credit Union Impact

From shaping the industry’s approach to data to framing the conversation around key industry issues, here’s a look at the impact we’ve made — and what’s to come Aaron Passman Let’s take a trip back in time. It’s Monday, April 1, 1985. You’re headed home from work at the credit union, one of more than 10,000 nationwide. You’re sitting behind the wheel of a Chevy Cavalier — the top-selling car in America at the time — with “We Are The World” piping out of the speakers. Not surprising, as it’s the No. 1 song in the country. You’ve got to make a stop at the grocery store, where the price of eggs has dropped to about 50 cents a dozen — roughly 20 cents cheaper than one month prior — but you’re already starting to think ahead to the weekend. Maybe you’ll head to the theater for “Police Academy 2,” and see what all the fuss is about — after all, it’s the most popular movie in America. But tonight you’re planning to sit down for the NCAA championship game to see whether Villanova can pull off ...

Setting & Meeting Your 2018 GOALS - Dan Berger

A new year provides a fresh start and a clean slate and is often the time when resolutions and goals are established. If you are in the process of setting new goals – as I am – know that with an open mindset, achievement of all your goals is possible. "Goals provide clarity," writes Mareo McCracken, revenue leader of Movemedical. He explains that goal setting is about "combining the fortitude to achieve with clear thinking while making sense of your purpose and defining your ability to deliver value to others." However, goal setting and achieving also requires faith – or believing and hoping in something you can't see yet or that doesn't quite exist. For many of us, the No. 1 reason we don't achieve our goals is that we lack belief in ourselves and our abilities. I encourage you to read an article by Inc.com contributor Benjamin Hardy  that details the importance of having this kind of faith in yourself and delivers some tips on how to achie...
