Milestone Recognition as Credit Union Approaches Its 90th Anniversary of Serving Detroit in the Small Asset Size Category
One Detroit Credit Union, a member-owned financial institution, has been named Credit Union of the Year in the Small Asset Size Category by The Michigan Credit Union League (MCUL) at the 2024 MCUL and Michigan Credit Union Foundation (MCUF) Awards ceremony held last Friday evening in Traverse City.
The MCUL and MCUF Awards recognize credit unions, professionals, and volunteers for outstanding
efforts in leadership, operational effectiveness, community service, and financial education. The
awards, presented across various categories, highlight achievements across the asset-size spectrum
and at different stages of career development. One Detroit Credit Union earned this prestigious
accolade in the small asset category, focusing on their exceptional contributions to member services
and community engagement.
For 90 years, One Detroit Credit Union has served as Detroit’s community financial institution with a
mission to impact and change lives. As a non-profit, member-owned institution, One Detroit offers
credible, fair, and reasonably priced financial products and services to the Detroit community, with
special concern for those overlooked by the mainstream banking system.
“We are incredibly honored to be recognized as the Outstanding Credit Union of the Year in the small
asset size category as we approach our 90th anniversary as an advocate for the Detroit community.
This award is a testament to our unwavering commitment to Detroit and our dedication to providing
exceptional financial services. Over the years, we have strived to be an inspiration in the industry,
epitomizing what a credit union should be by serving our community with dedication and integrity,”
said Hank Hubbard, President and CEO of One Detroit Credit Union.
“One Detroit Credit Union is a true inspiration in the industry. They are the epitome of what a credit
union should be, living out the mission and vision upon which credit unions were founded—serving
those who otherwise might not be served. One Detroit deserves to have awards named after them for
their accomplishments benefiting their members, employees, community, and the credit union
movement at large,” added Kris Lewis, CEO of Allegan Credit Union.
This honor lays the foundation for the credit union’s anniversary celebrations starting in Fall 2024,
among other exciting announcements to come. For more information about One Detroit Credit
