American Croatian Business Association is planning to organize a new Croatian Credit Union to provide banking services;

• for ACBA members, employees of member organizations,
• for all members and shareholders of the American Croatian Lodge Cardinal A. Stepinac, and all member groups of the lodge,
• for members of St. Paul Croatian Church and all the affiliate clubs and organizations.

 
A new Croatian Federal Credit Union is very much needed to serve and support the growth and progress of Croatians in our community.  However, before we can make our application to the Federal Gov. for a new Credit Union we must show that there is a need and a desire to have one. National Credit Union Administration (Gov.) has created a SURVEY form to be completed by as many Croatians as possible, indicating their interest, or not,  in the new Croatian credit union services.

Please complete the SURVEY (link) and mail it to ACBA, P.O. Box 31172, Independence, Ohio 44131. If you have questions about the survey please call Neven at 440 838 1437.

If you choose to answer the survey by email to the President of ACBA ( president@acba.us), indicate your answer to the seven questions. Example:  1. Yes, 2. No, 3 Yes, etc. We will fill-out the survey form for you.
