When Nebraska credit union advocates meet with Congressmen, U.S. Senators, Governor, state and local officials, or candidates running for office, it is important that they can accurately quantify the number of credit union members\/constituents that reside in each respective district. This is done through the PZC program. The League recently announced a partnership between the League, CU Collaborate, and America\u2019s Credit Unions to strengthen PZC by streamlining the process by which geographical member data is safely and securely shared. Late last year, CU Collaborate and the League organized several Nebraska credit unions for a pilot of the new PZC. The pilot program went extremely well and the testimonials from some of those participating credit unions underscore the ease with which credit unions participated. The webinar served as a statewide roll out of the new PZC program to all Nebraska credit unions. The League\u2019s goal is to have every credit union member in Nebraska counted through PZC. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cWe were very pleased with the ease of the streamlined Project Zip Code process through CUCollaborate. The user-friendly system has made our data entry and analysis tasks much simpler and more efficient. Accurate and real-time data greatly enhances Nebraska Credit Union\u2019s ability to advocate for our members&#8217; interests effectively. This process, along with the knowledgeable and easy to work with team at CUCollaborate, has made reporting information that is crucial for credit union advocacy efforts easy.\u201d\u00a0 &#8212; <\/em><em>Frank Wilber, President\/CEO, Liberty First Credit Union<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cCobalt Credit Union recently participated in the Project Zip Code pilot program and was thoroughly impressed.
