We are honored to support the efforts of our nearly 3,000 credit union clients as they help their members navigate this challenging time,” said Rick Ebrey, General Manager, Harland Clarke and President of Operations & Client Management, Vericast. “International Credit Union Day provides the opportunity to recognize their service and the impact they have on turning members’ dreams into reality.”
