The Carolinas Credit Union League is a proud supporter of the Carolinas Credit Union Foundation, and together we will honor credit unions and credit union professionals on January 30, 2020 – the night before Carolinas Credit Union LAUNCH. This will be a semi-formal event with cocktail attire encouraged. New for 2020 is the addition of a Gatsby Casino Afterparty, hosted by the Young Professional of the Carolinas. All of the proceeds for the evening will benefit the Foundation’s community grant program.
