Community Volunteer Opportunities - U.S. Eagle Federal Credit Union

The Eagle needs you

Helping to build a stronger, more hopeful New Mexico is our driving purpose. By creating volunteer opportunities, U.S. Eagle is opening the doors for our younger community to start realizing their professional dreams and discovering what they want to do early on. Not only do those who participate in our programs learn more about their local business community, but we also learn how to better serve our members.

We welcome anyone who has an interest in helping their community and their credit union. We seek volunteers to serve on the following committees:

ALCO Committee: A supervisory group that coordinates the management of assets and liabilities with a goal of earning adequate returns.

CECL Committee: A committee, whose job it is to guide the institution through the process of transition to estimating their allowance in compliance with the new Current Expected Credit Losses accounting standard.

Election Committee: The election committee is responsible for organizing elections. Members are usually appointed and consist of an election administrator as well as other officers who help supervise election along the way. The election committee is also responsible for delivering the result of the election to the board, their members and their electorate.

Finance Committee: The finance committee is primarily to provide financial oversight for the organization. Typical task areas include budgeting and financial planning, financial reporting, and the creation and monitoring of internal controls and accountability policies.
