“We’re thrilled to bring Open Your Eyes to a Credit Union® to more consumers across the country,” said Chris Lorence, CUNA Chief Credit Union Awareness Officer. “From our first launch in January 2019 to now, we’ve launched thirteen states. We’ve come a long way! Thank you to California and Nevada Credit Union League, Mountain West Credit Union Association, Nebraska Credit Union League, West Virginia Credit Union League, and Association of Vermont Credit Unions and all the credit unions whose support is driving this campaign.”
