International Credit Union (ICU) Day®

Thursday, October 16, 2025

International Credit Union (ICU) Day® celebrates the spirit of the global credit union movement. The day is recognized to reflect upon the credit union movement's history, promote its achievements, recognize hard work and share member experiences. International Credit Union (ICU) Day® has been celebrated on the third Thursday of October since 1948.

The ultimate goal is to raise awareness about the tremendous work that credit unions and other financial cooperatives are doing around the world and give members the opportunity to get more engaged. The day of festivities for credit unions and financial cooperatives globally includes fundraisers, open houses, contests, picnics, volunteering and parades.

In 2025, World Council of Credit Unions (WOCCU) and Worldwide Foundation for Credit Unions (WFCU) invite you to celebrate the 77th anniversary of International Credit Union Day® on Thursday, October 16, under the theme:

Cooperation for a Prosperous World
