Giving Back to Our Members
We consider members “owners” of the credit union, which means our Board of Directors is staffed by elected members. The Board is a diverse group of successful individuals, each serving a two to three-year terms. As a truly democratic representative group, every member, no matter the size of their deposit, has one vote in electing the Board.
The Board sets policies, objectives, and long-term goals that are vital for Elevate Credit Union's health and well-being. Once elected, Directors have the opportunity to share their business experiences, leadership skills, and management capabilities in a team effort.

Checks and Balances
This committee comprises of three to five volunteers. It is responsible for ensuring that the Board of Directors and Management establish policies and practices safeguarding members' interests and rights. This committee also carries out a continuing series of audits to ensure that records are appropriately maintained, honestly, and accurately.
They also ensure the board's policies are carried out faithfully and members' concerns are promptly addressed and resolved.
