Today is International Credit Union Day!
Our Young & Free Indiana Spokester, Aly Hess, recently got to travel to Nashville, Tennessee where she met up with Spokesters from other regions across the US and Canada. There, they put together a video that addresses a very important issue for Gen Y and how they could benefit from credit union membership. Check out the video below and spread the good word. Ask your friends and family how they would like to spend their $50,000, then help them become a member.
Happy International Credit Union Day!

Young & Free Indiana Top Ten Finalists
You’ve spoken…and our Top Ten Finalists in the running to be the next Young & Free Indiana Spokester have been revealed!
So now what?
The top ten have been challenged to create another video blog and a written blog that shows everyone what kind of Spokester they could be. Those entries are due by July 2nd and will be posted along with their online applications on or before July 3rd.
These finalists will also be attending our Show Your Stuff Meet-Up Thursday, where they will be put to the test in person! This group interview will allow us to experience the capabilities of all our finalists as they showcase their Spokester skills.
Matt Mills, and others, will be tweeting their observations using the hashtag #yfstuff between Noon and 3p.m. Follow @YoungFreeIN and @3riversfcu to interact with us during the interview!
This year, the Top Ten will be narrowed straight down to the winner, who will be chosen by 3Rivers (so that means there will not be a Top 3 public vote for those of you who watched the competition last year.)
The winner will get The Ultimate Job, and the remaining 9 Runners-Up will each get a $100 Amazon Gift Card!
Be sure to watch youngfreeindiana.com for the extra posts from each finalist and see how the competition unfolds.

Thanks to the folks over at NerdWallet for noticing a great thing when they find it. They’ve identified the Livin’ Free Spending account as one of the top free checking accounts available from credit unions across the nation. Here’s a little of their comments:
Big banks may be raising their fees, but credit unions are rolling out the welcome mat. Many credit unions have offered free checking for years, and an increasing number have started offering extra perks like debit rewards and interest to go along with it
