One of the key differences between banks and credit unions is the democratic structure of credit unions. Our Board of Directors is not a group of paid shareholders, it is a team of unpaid member volunteers, elected by the membership to oversee the governance of our financial cooperative.
On behalf of the Nominating Committee, we are pleased to announce the election results for the three open Board of Directors seats. While there were originally two open seats, a recent vacancy occurred. On April 29, the Board approved filling that vacancy through this election, which is why a third candidate was included.
- 47.2% Joshua Orozco
- 39.4% Melissa Lopez
- 31.9% Gilbert Moreno
- 25.8% Anthony Tomasheski
- 23.3% Gabrielle Melendez-Yildirim
- 15.7% Frances Yepez
With no nominations by petition, the following members have been elected to serve on our Board of Directors:
- Joshua Orozco
- Melissa Lopez
- Gilbert Moreno
Congratulations to all candidates and thank you to our members for participating!
